Martha,

I take Mestinon with food and slowly adjusted the dose as needed. I found it works as an ark and if you over dose it makes it worse. At first it was hard to sleep for the noise from my intestines. Slow adjustments solved this to the point of the most strength. Now I take Mestinon morning and evening only.

Prednisone was the key to me feeling much better.

Hope all gets better.
