Smile Hello to everybody

Just a few words to introduce myself.
I am a man, aged 68, lives in France, and was diagnosed with MG last June with ocular disorders, arm and neck weakness, chewing and swallowing difficulties. EMG and antibodies anti-AChR were positive.
I am treated with Mestinon (5 x 80 mg/day + 1 x 180 mg delayed), 75 mg of prednisone for 74 kg and 4 x 500 mg of Cellcept since August 31.
I had also 2 cures of IVIg without much effect.
The only improvement has been the disappearance of double-vision and eye-lid ptosis.
I have been told that steroïds take at least 2 to 3 months to act positively (if they act…), so I'm waiting…
