Thumbs up

I am an acupuncture physician in Florida and have been having acupuncture treatment and using herbs to manage my MG. I was diagnosed in May 2013. I was on low dose prednisone for 6 months. I am now taking a low dose of cellcept and doing well. I take mestinon 60 mg 4 times a day. I really feel that I would be doing much worse if I was only doing a western medicine approach. I don't think acupuncture is a cure but I do think it improves quality of life. I think it can arrest the progression of the disease as well. Good luck and keep up your acupuncture treatment.
