Abstract

To better understand what it's like to live with Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS), we spoke to two individuals who have been living with non-tumor LEMS for years. They graciously shared stories that shed light on the day to day impact of this rare condition extending from mobility and daily functioning to identity, relationships, and mental health. In sharing their experiences, they also offered insights and advice for others newly diagnosed with LEMS or managing its challenges long-term.
