Some people don't do well on Timespan. And if you take the "regular" Mestinon in addition to it, you can have overdose symptoms. Did your neuro tell you that?
Please talk to a PCP about what is going on.

Hi Annie, thanks for the clarification. I have a new pcp (my previous dr retired due to ACA). He agrees that I do indeed have MG. His advice is to go home and meditate. He also suggested hiking to build up my muscular strength. I think I need a new pcp, haha.
I quit taking the "regular" mestinon as soon as I started the timespan. So far so good. That clenching feeling persists however, as well as that creepy nerve endings feeling in my arms and legs. My neuro has an associate that is an internist. I believe I'll schedule a consult with him (hiking indeed)
Thanks again for your advice and support
Jan
