I wonder if folks living in the country get MG more often than our urban neighbors? Raised as a farm boy and currently living in the country, I have always lived close to the fertilizers, weed killers and pesticides applied by tractor and airplane in crop fields adjacent to the house. If you add in the organophosphates and carbamates used by the military in combat zones I served in, then consider the fact that research proves that exposure to some of those chemicals cause MG....it would be interesting if we found out MG diagnosis occurs more often in rural areas or areas where some of the strong chemicals are regularly used..
