I am a 71 year old who was diagnosed with MG in September. I'm in seemingly excellent health so the neurologist wanted me to have the thymus removed which I did in December. When I went for my appointment with the neurologist he increased my mestinon dosage from 3 to 4 tablets every four hours. I was disappointed as I thought it might be decreased instead of increasing it. I haven't had any weakening since the surgery and am confused as to why he increased the medication. Any ideas from any one out there? Thank you
