- I have been reading up on Imuran and Cellcept as possible treatment for MG. My neuro had suggested it, but I am hesitant due to the side effects and from what I have read, it is not a guarantee, all you can do it try it. Imuran seems to be a bit...
- I am still not seeing very good results from going on the prednisone at 40 mg a day. It has been two weeks now and I am still taking the Mestinon and it helps some, but I am kind of up and down. I am going to wait another two weeks before going...
- Does anyone go to a support group for MG? I have been thinking about, but kind of hesitant.
- I wish each and everyone of the posters here to have happy holidays.
- I started the 40 mg of prednisone last week and still taking the Mesitnon, but I am not really seeing much difference, in fact, the mornings are hell and last night I had a hard time sleeping because of what seemed like heart palpitations. These...
- I am up to 30 mg a day of the prednisone with this recent flare and Mestinon 2-4 a day, and I am not seeing any results to speak of. In fact, I am feeling worse at times. I seem to have some times when I feel a bit better, but then it slips...
- Are you supposed to take your prednisone all a once or can you split it up? Let's say you have 5 mg tablets, but need to up your dosage as you are having problems, like I am. Should I take 20 to 30 mg at one or can I split it up? I am dancing...
- Has anyone tried taking Tumeric as a supplement or anything else for that matter that helps with this?
- I got a good response to my post about having problems again. When I first started with symptoms (2 years ago), it was weakness that started in my hands and went all the way to my feet. I had a brief episode of double vision, but it went away on...
- I have been going through almost 2 years with this very mysterious ailment. Last year in September, I was doing great, down to 2.5 mg prednison, no Mestinon and foolishy I went off the Prednisone. I did taper, but went off of it and felt perfect...
- My neuro wanted me to take Cellcept about two months ago and I had restarted my prednisone after going off of it and having a flare! I didn't like it too much and didn't like taking two medications, not really knowing which one works, so I stopped...
- I have been taking 10 mg of Prednisone and some Mestinon p.r.n. About a month ago, after stopping the Prednisone I had a bout of double vision and it took almost a month before it resolved and going back on the Prednisone and Mestinon. I have...
- My double vision has diminished after 4 weeks ( posted below). I am on 40 mg a day of Prednisone and Mestinon about 4 times a day. I am feeling better, but not like I was, still a bit shakey. My neuro started me on Cellcept and it was horrible...
- I posted below about my double vision and yesterday I started taking Cellcept in addition to the prednisone and Mestinon. I am just wondering what the Cellcept does and I know it takes a long time to kick in, something like 6 months. Will it...
- Last year I was diagnosed with MG. After four months of getting weaker and weaker I was put on Mestinon and prednisone. Before I went on the meds, I had about 7-9 days of double vision that went away on its own. After I started the medication...
