Okay, here's my jaundiced opinion. Keep in mind that there are many people here who are more experienced with mg than I am. But, from my perspective, anytime a male neurologist tells his female patient essentially, "don't think about it too much, you'll get carried away" that's a big, red flag too me. I'll bet he wouldn't say that to a big, strapping lumberjack. So what if you come back with worse general symptoms? Is his first response going to be that you're hysterical? Because that is no fun. It's very humiliating. And it doesn't help you at all.

If you have real concerns that your arms are weak or you have other, similar problems then I think you should ask for the other tests. If he takes you seriously, then great. If not, or if he makes you feel silly, then maybe it's better to move on.

Just my two cents.
