I know what you mean, Joan...The cancer thing bothers me too, but it seems that all the immunosuppresants carry a risk of cancer...I was reading a message board for side-effects of Imuran, and most of the people were complaining about skin cancer, a sudden influx warts, really bad infections, jaundice- and that one is a less strong immunosuppresant compared to the others too...*sigh*..But then again, I figure that majority of the people who'd post on that site were those who experienced bad side-effects, so the risk is prolly still quite low...

Joan...What were your symptoms like before you went into remission...Are your current sx similar to the ones you experienced when you first got MG? Also, was your thymus heperplastic?

Thanks for your input!
Nicky
