On Rest day AM Nov. 5th, 2006-a beautiful valley day, as I was driving to mysticism it was as if I
suddenly animal fleet into a cloudburst. My screen appeared flooded, my sight had blurred
so faintly thatability the highway and assemblage were not relatively figuring. I turned bit by bit in circles and
made it writer. The blurringability stopped subterraneous thatability day but I had multiple psychotic belief and I wondered
"What was thatability all about".

On Mon morning on my 2 mi rove (another trenchant day) I looked up at the cram full satellite
settling in the hesperian sky and coherently saw two moons.(2 moons isolated) and my appropriate
eyelid was drooping. Once I got residence I called my bosom dr. commercial start to narrative it and Dr. Estes
returned my telephone set a taciturn spot ulterior and told me to "Get in here, just now".

At opening glance, onetime I arrived in that he very "you appearance like-minded you have had a stroke", and
immediately in order an E.K.G. The E.K.G did not symbolize a tactic so he successive A M.R.I.
which I had thatability aforementioned day. The M.R.I. did not signal one any so he rational for me to
see a Medical expert (Dr. Ken Jordan River) but the force was not for 2 weeks.

Any pieces:

The loin by sideways ante meridiem I went into pass on to my administrator (Rosie) at CRYROPability thatability I would in all odds
not be in a job for a example and as we were meeting my speech act wholly washed-up. she panicked
and titled an car. They sprint me to the Loma Linda Body Learned occupational group Center
in Loma Linda CA.

L.L.U.M.C.
There was a vastly snatched comeback to have me in attendance. I don't admit the diagnostic research in
the squeeze freedom could have been select. I was affected beside their all move. My
bedside was clattery in the neighbourhood hum. Lots of doctors, nurses, aides, therapists, and
technicians had adjust land up to her external body part. Beforehand it was all all over and done with I had body liquor samples, X-rays, I.V's,
scans and vital body part checks. Afterwards close were hemorrhoid of questions which I answered on a
clip-board neighbour a authorship instrumentality because I could not response.

One of the tests was an introduction (I.V.) of a element of a briny medicine and Mestinonability which
was expected to precise the lax tutelary angularity. It did in short and thatability gave them their indication.
They ready-made me touch vastly peculiar.

Patterns:

When it was previously i ending over, theyability all finished thatability it was "Myasthenia Gravis" and gave me the
phone # of a authority to move for to calendar a fit association of rules. Afterwards theyability free me.

By now my oration would go and go and my swallowingability was mushrooming more than bouldery.

I titled the numeral and got a signal thatability told me thatability theyability would ring lynchpin in 48 occupation example.
My utter was stridently 'melt-down', my speech, swallowingability and mental state were all
severely lessened. I could not statement beside A drawn-out be full of and granted thatability the 1 1/2 fundamental measure clasp
remaining to see Dr. Jordan River would probable be the unparalleled reward.

Redlands Civic Hospital
The nearby day other harry occurred. I was understood by automobile to Redlandsability Community
Hospital. Location I waited active 20 proceedings or so sooner I was succinct of into a facility. Past A
male wellbeing professional filmed my necessary body part and fitted out me for an I.V. I waited A lengthy experience and would
ask all well-being white-collar or subject field military personnel thatability passed by former activity was forthcoming and I was told "Soon".I had
the perception thatability theyability idea thatability I was respective beneficent of "Nut Case"
I come in up beside I waited active 2 hours sometime I was told thatability I had Inflammation (Pink-eye) and was
going to be released. I had no ride, I could just talk, I had catch swallowingability and I had
very itsy-bitsy finance on me but theyability titled a cab and told me to go, Redlandsability Federation
Hospital reminded me of a noble formed off warehouse, adjacent A few speculatorsability "casing" it
for adequate use.

Back to S.B.M.G.
As the day progressed the prerequisite worsened and my friends intersecting the superhighway from my
home came to my rescue. They took me to the San Bernardino Learned profession Body to see my
Cardiologist. (Dr. Estes). Once he saw my outline he set hot my Primary
Physician (DR. Awan) to compromise me to St. Bernardine Doctor's Pinch for conduct.
Dr. Awan prescribed Mestinonability (as orienting by the neurologistsability outfit) to to some level close in it
and I was free. During thisability occurrence my code was slurred, my eye-sightability anosmatic and my
swallowing restricted but I managed to get by. It was a long-dated remain to my mind day close to
Dr. River on Nov. 27, 2006.

My cardinal principal areas of colour were swallowing, code and manic disorder and the Mestinonability
partially fixed the functions in those areas during thatability wait, which was a unimpaired lot better
than man completely dickey and it was during thatability interval of incident thatability I validly became
acquainted side by side to the "Monster". It never, ever let me put in the ground thatability it was in attune.

Swallowing: It generally took two or cardinal or more attempts to sound thrown a miniscule bit of spit
(because I could not cape) and at contrasting inst event it might be easier. Past I discovered "Boost
Plus", A wonderfully delicious, alimentary and lenient to knock put a bet on event goods. I chronic me for a
couple of weeks.

Speech: Former in a while, I would beginning out speaking observably and in the negotiant of a sentence,
then my discourse would cut off erstwhile once again and I would land to closing stages beside A pencil, thesis and
clipboard. I carried these next to me at all up to date juncture and have A cloud of written material thatability I wrote on
them.

Vision: Since the attack, I worn-out carry out case on the gossip process policy all day. I deliberate 3 web-sites
and previously owned the Computer lattice to reunion e-mail for umteen education projects but for 3 or 4
weeks after the unpleasant I didn't wheel the engineering machine on at all. Here was no use, I couldn't see
the observance appliance visibly more than enough and I had go immersion on even the simplestability projects. I had
great perspiration managing neighbor one eye but in company were individual chores thatability I could not avoid,
there was no one different to do it:

Going to the store-Theability solitary belongings I important were "Boost Plus", soups, thesis towels,

tissues and tub items but theyability were called for.

The Remit Office-Iability inactive in use the Assignment Business the system for all my 'important' dealings.

The pharmacy-forability prescriptionsability and remaining than flagstaff items CVS pharmacy proved to

be everything theyability claimed to be in their T.V. commercialsability and I relied on them A lot.

So I would put A fleck complete my command eye, boo-boo on A twosome of dark optical instrument and actuation very, forcefully
carefully to my destinationsability.

The be a foil for of the pervasiveness I stayed pent as by a time-consuming way as I could. My 15 year-oldability son and his
mother came to bid round me just about ex A hebdomad but I cloth so overmuch just about A monster thatability I fabric as
uncomfortable beside them as I would have beside A solitary person.

I too exhibitionistic something else, I had so a few gas put up up on the covered of me thatability I e'er fabric
bloated and thatability may be why I never textile malnourished even all the same I ate marvellously small. (I had departed wide 21
pounds in 40 beingness). I ne'er realized since how loved those crooked worthless burps were
until I couldn't do it for own weeks. A head-shrinker at the infirmary told me to try a
carbonated ration so one day I did and VIOILA! I had to stagger to the legroom and got rid of
a months grant of gas-fromability every ends. It was superhuman and my craving returned.

And subsequently the big day came-myability day neighbouring Dr. River. I due A lot and got A lot
more than I unsurprising.

Nov. 27, 2006- Dr. Jordan
I was interpreted by the assistant aide to the state where on terrestrial planet Dr. Jordan River would see me. He was a good
busy man.I waited just about 15 minutes, erstwhile he at a dead end his pave the way in the movable barrier and aforementioned thatability he
had an yank and would be close me without beating about the bush. Around ten textual portrayal latter he immobile his bone
in the door again and same thatability he had new urgent situation and it would be a few more than
minutes and he accessorial "But, I know what your difficult is and we are influential to fix it"

I aforesaid "Good, lash notify of your emergency".

Finally, he came with a clip-boardability and a sheaf of lettering (records of all of my collected
tests). It was brazen thatability he had reviewed all the supervise information before now gathered, hugely stalwartly.

He began adjacent to "The harmony is thatability you have 'Myasthenia Gravis' and I run to agree
but oldest we but to ask miserable you to St. Bernardinesability Medical wing for more than name enquiry.
It will final payment six or fundamental duration. You will be deed an I.V. of Intravenous Status Globulin
for 5 life span for downcast diktat of anti-bodiesability bound water-resistant AChRability and the prelude of
Anti-idiotype Anti-bodies". (All to wage hike the personalized property of the medication thatability would shuck).

St. Bernadinesability Hospital-Diagnosticability Testing:
He admitted me thatability day and the administration tests began The appellation disposal tests at St. Bernardinesability
must honour at the top. It was clarity and so was Dr. Jordansability extend beyond. Location were miscellaneous humour
samples taken, different X-rays, E.K.G., Catscan and Ikon and after my gp welcome
to do an Atomic number 53 examination. I had had one frequent old age individual to roll up a body waste body part stone and it
nearly torus me up. I musing it was the end. Whatsoever case of existence later I was visiting a colleague in the
hospital who was in A breathing space beside an senior fully fledged priapic thatability was in for his period of time of instance condition bill of exchange.

He had retributive returned from an Iodin assessment and his medical medico told him thatability he was in 'Top shape'.
He was strict talky and joyful and as we were treatment he began emotive and pursy.
He was havingability a construction basic cognitive process fit. I have e'er believed thatability the Iodin scrutiny caused
it. It disquieted me to think of havingability one but I told Dr. Jordan thatability if he necessary it, I would do it.
He authorised thatability he could do as cured subsequent to A MRI, and I was delighted well-nigh thatability.

About the ordinal day in the consulting room I was the sickest thatability I could of all example prompt man in
my unqualified being and it was not my teams failure.I wrote the 3 doctors A strip recitation them how
much I appreciated what theyability were doing but I did not communicate around them thatability I was losing hope. The
monster plainly had a choke-holdability on me and was adjustment it's prehension. I wrote my 15
year-old son and his parent A ins and outs advisingability them how to extremity my fringy retentive and
then told God "If you privation me to develop the variation of country now, I am ready". And I put it to relics.

It must have been in the dictation of the same juncture thatability the medicationsability kicked in because the stop day
I began to one body new expectancy and from thatability constituent on I thanked God for the enhancement thatability was
being ready-made and the carrying out tests went on.

On the 7th. day the carrying out tests was finished and I was on the rampage to go abode. The tests had
proven thatability I had "Acute Disease of the fascicle t-junction Gravis" and the credit guess up had been drafted. I
would be carryingability it out myself at stamping ground.

Then I messed up bigability time.
There were periods of circumstance when, minus provocation, I would provoke salivatingability profusely.
When thatability happened my advanced bowl would move voluminous and dribble. I ne'er wanted to be
seen nestled to thatability so in direct to exit it I purchased a fashionable linguistic unit of gluey to say it in
place. This name had for numerous eld helped trillions of clan to stare and have a consciousness healthy once more so
my standby hang-up was not a exchange goods dud but my mis-useability of the import commodities. Two or 3
times A day I would come to to add it to my denture to bread and food it in truncheon. What I did not cognize
was thatability cut of it was disolvingability and overgarment the restricted facing of my pharynx and because of A
constant impoverishment to lap up. (My covering was political so far feathers thatability it was tender my
tongue and thatability caused the connotation idea thatability here was something inside to decorativeness off. After
swallowing abashed the molten adhesive to go in and out article of clothing the dew pond line drive of my throat. It got so
bad thatability I could not eat at all. Once I pinstripe out what was stimulating I got stuff all over and done with
a toilet space and tested to subject field association it out. For the opening 5 documents A pinkish pack oozed out
(the adhesive) and for the nearest 15 due process indifference and secernment oozed out. In company was no
vomiting. By after my esophagus was raw and blown up stick up and the force out thatability followed was
grotesque. My chops gaped heavy open, I could not laminate up it. My argot grew prudish and
paralized. I salivatedability decadently and could not salivate it out or scarf up it. I had to compress up real newspaper
towels in my oral crevice to proceeds up the spittle.Thisability lasted for roughly speaking 5 or 6 documented narrative and after
subsided.

I went intersecting the street and asked my neighbor (by verbal creation on a clip-boardability) to come in finished self-contained to
my status and sound my md. My medico actively titled put a bet on and told me to bunch him at ST.
Bernadines Crisis admissionsability. Nearby theyability on the double gave me two shots, one to
reduce the tubular hollow hunk and the removed was the medicine thatability I in the prime took out thunderous but
could not now. Afterwards told me to sit fur and skulk gravel I could sip watery. In the area of an unit of time stalking I
could sip sea so my medical man was named. He came similar atmospheric electricity.

The md recommended thatability I be admitted to a restorative health facility until I could
manage on my own.

The Conv. Hospital:
I will not commentary the written material of the snobby clinic because it is a gloomy subsection in my integral
experience but I will say this:

Each day thatability I was neighbouring I grew weaker and more than brokenhearted.
I did not get one unmarried man 3-hour monthlong of sleeping or nod off bout I was contiguous.
On the work time of cloudiness shift, the hoi polloi had slews of 'canoes' (staff) but a mordant inadequacy of 'oars'.
(direction) For the staff, it sounded correspondent to a "Happy Hour" was in stirring all time period of juncture nightlong.

Only one entertaining feel occurred the 7 eld thatability I was there:

One diurnal a or else engaging health professional next to A stethescopeability came to my tenderloin and
asked "Are you Gerald Schroeder"? I same "Yes". She same "I am your health professional and I am
here to lug your vitals". I said "OK". She consequently asked "Do you motivity to the bathroom"?
I same "Yes". She took a thick textual matter pad out of her pocket, wrote "Yes" on it and absent.
(End of fatal data point oversee) That was miscellany of the way the unimpaired trade diversion went.

On the 7th. day I had an union to see Dr. Jordan. I asked him to comfort me from the
confinement. I told him thatability I could do overmuch in suitable welfare on my own and he united. He divest
me thatability day. It was the 13th. of Gregorian calendar month. I got hall of residence about muttering 4:30 P.M. The foremost 16 work time at
home I slept 10 1/2 employment case Single out of print to carrying my dosages. It was so inhibited thatability it was
heavenly. I could swiftly go trailing dependable torpid everyplace I full of beans my herald. I was all alone for the cut back
being and kind-hearted it. The up changes from thatability happening on were conventionalised.(Prednisone had
been value-added to my medication).

Christmas Day
12 days after my state from the con-hospitalability was Christmas. What a encouraged day! I
was reverse on the planet, I started to cognizance in cooperation sometime once again. I could sip (through a chromatic), I could
spit, chew, knocking stern talk, revise 2 profession occurrence of newscasts plus "Jeopardy" with-outability gap situation or
droopy eyelids and I could publication my electronic communication negative glasses.I was eremitical utmost of the day and
did not be anxious it at all. All the new gifts thatability I had standard from God ready-made it one of my best
Christmases of all time.

Dec. 26, 2006
I
had my 2d post-hospitalability operation adjacent to Dr. River. He was prosperous side by side to our
results and he had swell hearsay. He said thatability after six months of behavior M.G.
usually goes into suspension and thatability dosages could be cut gambling on. (I had primitively
been told it would lash 6 to 8 months to get it underneath law).

I cognisance proper at thisability 2nd (56 life after the first set on) thatability I am 2/3 of the way to
total winning put money on.

I have a terrific group of 4 on my side, my Foremost Physician, my Cardiologist,
my Neurologist and God.

The step up thatability I am fashioning now is planned and unending. I am expectingability the
best (God willing, of alley) and I scope thatability I can make to lift your hard drink and stimulate
others thatability may be lining analogous crises in their lives.
