Ooo

I am an Acupuncture Physician in a group practice in Florida. Since my MG diagnosis, I have had to drop my work schedule down to 2 days a week. I work on Monday's and Thursdays only so I have rest days between. I also take 2 rest periods during my day where I actually lie down on my treatment table.

I just weaned off my prednisone and am only taking Cellcept and mestinon(generic) now. I am doing okay but not great. I would love to get even half of my old life back.

My Neuro has not offered IVIG or Plex. He only uses that for someone who is going into a crisis. He considers my case to be fairly mild. I am really a bit envious of those who can get it to live a more normal life. Maybe my age has something to do with it. I am in my late 50's and have a husband who can support me if I could not work.
