Mestinon alone does help with my double vision, although it has taken a long time (4 months I think) and getting the dosage just right (too much or not enough Mestinon gives me double vision). My doctor initially told me that the Mestinon should help the double vision but that it often takes as much as 5 months. I have only taken Mestinon for my MG.

I don't know how you dealt with the DV for a whole year.
Does anyone believe that Mestinon alone helps with double vision?
