Does this sound like MG?

I have recently had some pretty bad fatigue (sleeping 12+ hours a day) and still needing to lay down in between. I usually feel better even just laying down with my eyes closed for a while. Even when I’m up, it’s hard to stay standing or sitting in a chair without a back but I always feel better laying down. I was a pretty active person, hiking and going to the gym, but that’s gotten a lot harder. Recently doing strength training, I’ve been going down on weights that I used to be able to lift not too long ago and I can barely make it through a set before I have to lower the weight 50+ lbs to even be able to move the bar, I am also way less tolerant to cardio but I also have POTS and pectus excavatum. I’ve noticed that my vision goes double towards the end of the day for a few minutes, which I attributed to being a migraine aura and took OTC meds as soon as it happened so I never got a migraine after like I do with my normal visual auras. I also am finding that I need to swallow a few times for food to go down and that I’m eating fast because it gets harder to eat as time goes on. Looking at some photos and I may have some unilateral ptosis towards the end of the day. I also get very sore in my hands and have difficulty cooking now because of it and it gets harder to prep ingredients than it ever has been. I have an appointment with my PCP in a month and don’t know how to bring this up. The fatigue is definitely my main symptom but hearing about MG I’m wondering if all of this could be related. Any advice is appreciated.
