Where I live there is actually a bit of a hot spot for MG as we have over 50% of the population aged 65 and older. I know this as a friend of mine is a pharmacist and he obviously dishes out a lot of meds to people!

Thanks Patrick.

Thanks Rach
Who's referring you to oxford?
I printed off the numbers for the uk mtasthenia gravis site and seems there are about 10,000 patients in the uk but the split of the classifications has not been done in any detail.
An average four Gp practice will have Obe Mg Patient . guess I am it for my practice.
