No, I am still seronegative for both AChR and MuSK antibodies. I had an EMG which was unremarkable but have been diagnosed on Clinical Symptoms, Ice Test and response to Mestinon. My Neuro said we could do a SFEMG but as my predominant weakness is eye and facial he felt it was a lot to put me through and not necessary....which I am grateful for!! My symptoms are mainly eye droop and facial droop but I do also have intermittent weakness in my legs, neck, breathing and swallowing.....and occasionally my arms.

I wish I could be more help, It is a big decision and one I would be nervous about making myself despite my positive experience! I'm not sure what antibodies you have and I suppose it would be more reassuring if I was in the same "group" as you - seronegative is a hard one! My Doctor told me at the time that our bodies produce the equivalent of steroids in pregnancy which can help a lot of illnesses - but I still feel its a gamble to put our bodies under the pressure of a pregnancy when they can become so weak normally. I am sure that we would be kept closely monitored and, at the end of the day, there are no guarantees in pregnancy...or life with or without MG?? Maybe we just have to take our chances, if we never try, we'll never know - and that's the only way to find out??

Good Luck - I hope you find the answers you need to make your decision
