Kathy,
I agree, you were lucky to be diagnosed that fast. I was diagnosed pretty fast but with questions....my tests have been negative..but clinical symptoms have be dead on the mark! The neuropathy in my legs have thrown everyone for a loop...don't have a clue as to why this has occurred at the same time. Mestinon is good stuff!
Since going to Maryland for a second opinion, I have started (on the advice of the doc)...a daily journal of graphing my fatigue as well as graphing the times of my dosages of Mestinon. This has helped me to keep track as well. I have found a great website Livestrong.com that I can do a online food intake journal as well. I can graph my weigh and my progress with that as well.
I am determined to try to understand this disease better and improve my overall health at the same time!

.....The diet part is really hard....

...I have been using caffiene to combat the tiredness....and now I am really feeling the fatigue part of MG...I am 9 days completely caffiene-free. .Honest to God, I was drinking about 6-8 sodas a day...high in sugar and high in caffiene just to make it through each day!
