Feeling frustrated and scared about possible MG diagnosis

Just need to vent. I've just been told I could have MG (waiting for blood test results) and I never even heard of it before now. I feel stupid as I thought the symptoms were caused from my other illnesses. Looking it up it feels like a light as been turned on and things make sense. I'm just angry at myself and the doctors thinking it was my other conditions all this time. I'm also scared that it is MG while weirdly scared it isn't. I just want to know for sure and work on getting better.

Hiya. It's a scary diagnosis at first but there is a lot of treatments out there to help minimise the symptoms. It may take a while to get the right balance but with a good neurologist, things can improve dramatically. My best advice is listen to your body and rest when you need to. Overdoing things can leave you feeling weaker for much longer than taking the time to rest!
