The prevalence of MG in the United States is estimated to be about 20/100,000 population. However, MG is probably under diagnosed and the prevalence may be higher. Myasthenia Gravis occurs in all races, both genders, and at any age. MG is not thought to be directly inherited nor is it contagious. It does occasionally occur in more than one member of the same family. Source: Myasthenia Foundation of America, Inc.

In myasthenia gravis, your immune system produces antibodies that block or destroy many of your muscles' receptor sites for a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine. With fewer receptor sites available, your muscles receive fewer nerve signals, resulting in weakness. There is no malignancy associated unless there is also an abnormality of the thymus; a thymoma, a tumor (either benign or malignant) of the thymus, then other abnormalities are frequently found. The disease process generally remains stationary after thymectomy (removal of the thymus). Only about 7.5% of people with myasthenia gravis develop a thymoma.
I'm no expert, but there are at least five diseases to the muscular system. Arthritis, tendinitis, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and neuromuscular system(?).multiple sclerosis, myesthenia gravis, Lou Gehrig's disease, muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy - there are many others
The disease you are referring to is likely myasthenia gravis, which is an autoimmune disorder that affects the neuromuscular junction, leading to muscle weakness and fatigue. It can impact various voluntary muscle groups, including those involved in movement, breathing, and swallowing. Treatment typically involves medications to manage symptoms and, in some cases, immunosuppressive therapy.
Botulism affects many body parts because it can cause blurred vision, weak muscles, stomach cramping, nausea, and difficulty of breathing.
