Smile Hey Pippi!

I know what you mean about exercise and MG, but if your neuro says that you are not up to it just try and be patient. I KNOW how hard that is - trust me - and I know you do not want your muscles to waste away, but you really need to listen to your dr right now. I argued with mine and thought I was "stronger" than I was - I wasn't. It wasn't fun!

I am not trying to be a downer @ all.....I just know that MG isn't something you can "work through"......give it a little more time. Soon you'll get the "green light" and work out - it will all be worth it in the end!

Hang in there!
Big hugs!
Erin

Being at home, though, and being inactive is causing me concern over weight gain, muscle tone etc. I mentioned exercise to my Neuro at my last appointment and he said I was not ready. How can we keep muscle tone without hurting our MG?
