Many people experience worsening of MG temporarily when they start prednisone. For me it takes 2 weeks to feel the full effect of the prednisone dose. Going off prednisone can also make you feel very weak. It did for me. It takes a while for the adrenal glands to bounce back in their production.

MG varies day to day. You are not going to see immediate change in your conditionwith changing meds. It takes a while for the immunosuppresants to work. You may need to look at the longer overall trend rather than the day to day.

good luck
