Default It does get better!

It will take a while, but you will feel better soon! Hang in there!

I am still a newbie, but was diagnosed on March 6th and had my thymus removed on April 22nd. By the time I had left the hospital, my antibody levels had already gone down (they were @ 600).........

You will have good days/weeks, and bad ones. The most important thing to remember is to not overdo it! Rest when you can and try and stay hydrated (for me that means chewing on ice chips all day long).........

It has been my experience that a crisis doesn't come out of the blue - they build up until you have one. I have had a crisis and it made me go to the ICU for a while, but once there I was given lots of meds and that made me feel awesome!!!!!

There are lots of very knowledgeable people on this site that can offer a mot more info than I can. Hopefully they will answer soon!!!

I'd love to hear more about you when you have some time and the energy to do so!!!
