Generally, women aged 20 to 40 and men aged 50 to 80 are affected by myasthenia gravis. High-risk factors for developing this disease include autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, infections, surgical procedures, thyroid disease, and medications for malaria, heart arrhythmias and cancer.
Diabetes may trigger a stronger immune response due to an abnormal rise in blood sugar levels. This may further lead to the worsening of the myasthenia gravis.
