Hey Tyson,

I just read about what happened to you and I'm so sorry things have been so rough lately! It's excellent news that you're doing much better now- plasma exchange can be a real saviour, but sometimes, you can have a bad reaction. I sorta had a similar reaction to what you had last time I had one...My BP got super low, lost peripheral vision for like 10 mins., right hand went numb- scary stuff! I'm glad that everything worked out for you, though, and you're feeling stronger!

I agree with everyone here that alcohol and MG don't mix well...I haven't tried drinking while on prednisone, but I did look into to see if it was safe. Apparently, it is 'okay,' but the side-effects from the prednisone will be increased. For me, with the MG, various other health issues, and the predisone, it's not worth it to try it. But everyone's different. Just be careful!
