- I have had MG for over 60 years but it has remained only ocular. It was always in my left eye for all those years but showed up in my right eye about 8 months ago. Left eye is better than it's been in years. I have never taken anything except...
- I guess my post from yesterday was a bit confusing based on all the replies. My main question is where can I purchase the Mestinon Timespan at a good price. $125.00 for 30 tablets is ourrageous! Or, $525 for 100 tablets.I appreciate all the...
- In reading all these posts for the past 4 or 5 months it appears that everyone takes just plain 60 mg. Mestinon and not the Mestinon Timespan. I was put on Mestinon Timespan in l952 and did really well with no problems related to the drug. The...
- Can anyone tell me just how painful the EMG testing is? Since my MG is Ocular MG, having needles stuck in my eye sounds pretty horrible! Thanks! Carolina
- On one of the posts I recently read that any type of positive antibody test means you have Hashimoto's?? had a Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody test done and my results came back with a value of "13". The Standard Range is
- This is such a wonderful site for learning all kinds of things. Can anyone tell me if low thyroid causes a low heart rate?
- I have a question for all of you. I have an appt. at Mayo Clinic on July 11. However, my new flare-up of Ocular MG continues to remain ocular. Since I was diagnosed as a little girl with MG and approximately 25 years ago when it came out of...
- I recently read a posting on the MG site that said "With thyroid disease, an episode of hypothyroidism may trigger a flare-up of MG weakness" so I have a question for the forum.On 5/22/2012 I had my thyroid tested. TSH was 4.52. (Range 0.27-4.20)...

- I understand that my TSH levels to be optimal should be way down near 1 or 2 but what is the "normal" range for T3 and T4? I keep seeing they should be in the upper third of normal but I don't see a number for "normal"???
- From my recent thyroid blood tests, I apparently have hypothyroidism. I'm scheduled to go to Mayo Clinic but not until July 26. My primary care doc and my neurologist are both clueless about thyroid. I have "new patient" appt. with an internist...
- So, exactly how do you do the math? Do you take the labs "range results" and multiply that by 80%?
- Anyone on this site who suffers from both MG and hypothyroidism? I've had MG for 60 years......diagnosed in l952 but it has remained ocular..going in and out of remission thru the past 60 years. About 5 weeks ago it reoccurred......moving into my...
- Anyone else had any luck with getting Medicare to pay for Mestinon Timespan? 30 pills cost me $123.00! I just returned from seeing the neurologist. My thyroid blood test was normal with no sign of hypothyroidism or Hashimoto's Disease. My...
- I just returned from seeing the neurologist. My thyroid blood test was normal with no sign of hypothyroidism or Hashimoto's Disease. My T-3 was 2.81. Neurologist said 2.57 to 4.43 was the normal range. My T-4 was 1.21. Normal range is 0.81 to...
