Hey Kendra,

I'm sorry, but could you refresh my memory on the meds that you take? I get twitching sometimes from the mestinon. It's usually in my eyes, but I get it in my arms and legs as well. I do get weakness, and while it's usually on both sides, I have gotten it on only one. When I do get it, it's a warning for me to stop and rest! If I don't and continue to push, I have to literally use my hands to help move my legs to get me to the nearest place I can sit down and rest. This dosen't happen very often anymore. I've had MG going on 11 years, and I've learned not to push...it will win everytime. I don't know what is causing yours, but have you called your neuro and checked with him/her? As far as the stress goes...it's very bad for us. I understand all to well how difficult these economic times are. Make time for yourself and your husband too. Do something you both enjoy doing that doesn't cost a lot of money. Anything fun and relaxing that helps reduce the stress. Take care and let us know how you're doing.

Hugs,
Pat
