Thanks for the info. They can really get you second guessing yourself and wondering if you ARE crazy - as my first neuro, the jerk, told me I was. Kathy, about the thymectomy - they did it on me because there was some residual thymus tissue. Apparently there shouldn't have been at the age I was dx'd. I didn't have a thymoma or anything, and it's not a guaranteed thing that you'll go into remission in 3 to 5 yrs. One thing I have learned about the Neuro's after having seen six altogether, is that while any of them can dx MG, only some actually specialize in treating MG.
Glad you're able to carry on activies now, and wish you the best with your treatments.
Keep positive.
Becky
