Take it easy and don't do too much before you see the MG specialist. The MG backlash from doing too much can sometimes take several days to recover. It took me a year to accept that and in the meantime I made my life much harder than it had to be.

Mestinon makes me feel better but it does not let me act and do like before MG. Even on a good day, I still have to pace myself.

Take it easy and take frequent breaks, nap when you can. Time your activities after your mestinon dose so you are stronger. My recliner is my best friend. Ice packs help me if certain muscle groups are more effected.

Good luck with your appointment
