About the event

The MG Awareness Day will be an educational and interactive experience that reflects the many ways that MG affects daily living and strategies for taking control. The objective is to:

  • Raise awareness about the impact of MG for the general public
  • Educate people diagnosed with MG about treatment options and healthy lifestyle
  • FREE health screenings 

The atmosphere will embody an "edu-tainment" model with engaging activities, empowerment messaging, social interaction and vendors/partners providing information and solutions.

This is an opportunity to connect with others diagnosed with myasthenia gravis, learn about treatments and wellness options.  

For those who don’t have myasthenia gravis, we invite you to take part in our MyMGLife Challenge.  Work your way through six stations that give you an up close look into what it FEELS like to have myasthenia gravis.  This is a truly engaging activity.  


This event is FREE for attendees and does not require you to fundraise.  We want you to simply come out, learn and enjoy yourself with the games, food and silent auction.

 





Get Involved!

Sponsors,  vendors and volunteers  are needed to help make this event a success in ALL locations.   Please  email: MGHolisticSociety@gmail.com

About Myasthenia Gravis

 
Myasthenia Gravis is a rare chronic autoimmune neuromuscular  disease that impacts the voluntary muscles.   Myasthenia Gravis literally means grave muscle weakness.  People with a diagnosis  of Myasthenia Gravis may experience one or more of the symptoms referenced below.  These symptoms may come on all at once or take years to develop.  Some of the symptoms may  get better rest while other symptoms may require medication, immunotherapy, supplements or  lifestyle modification.  Each person diagnosed with MG experiences the symptoms differently, this is why it is referred to as the snowflake disease.  We are all very unique in the way MG shows up in our lives.  Additionally,  people diagnosed with MG do not all respond the same to the various treatments.  

Common MG symptoms:

Double vision

Blurred vision

Ptosis

Changes in facial expression 

Difficulty Swallowing

Fatigue

Shortness of breath

Difficulty   chewing

Difficulty walking

Impaired speech

Difficulty smiling

Difficulty talking

Muscle weakness in neck, arms, legs, hands or fingers
