A 35-year-old female presents to the emergency department with progressive weakness over the past week. She reports difficulty climbing stairs and has experienced episodes of double vision. Which condition is most likely indicated by these symptoms?
The symptoms described, including weakness that progressively worsens and episodes of double vision, are characteristic of myasthenia gravis, an autoimmune disorder affecting neuromuscular transmission. The other options do not align as closely with the combination of muscle weakness and ocular symptoms.
