Does your ankles turn easily? I have noticed that my ankles give out...and my legs are so heavy...I am wondering if this is due to neuropathy in my legs or MG....but mestinon really helps though....

My hubby installed some safety rails for our garage steps...I use the railings for support...I think I need to ask him to install me some safety rails in our big tub...I have been having some difficulty getting out of the tub at times...

I find holding on to the rails extremely helpful, and it'll be great if there's someone with you just in case. Different parts of my body twitches as well, so i think its probably ok?

Not sure if any of you have tried it, but I've found that certain kind of massages are great for relieving the symptoms. Am also able to sleep well after the massages, so perhaps its worth giving it a try! After all it does wonders to the aching body...
