I seriously don't even know what to say about this...It's absurd, seriously...

Okay, if he has doubts that you have MG, and he knows that you've had tensilon in the past, and haven't had a crisis, why would he give you atropine first (before tensilon), especially when its effects last for so long, that it'd render the results of the tensilon useless (because they'd be inaccurate)? I think that this is why a lot of docs. don't use tensilon anymore- because of this ridiculous situation that might materialize...

If you reacted to the Atropine, does that mean that you got better or worse? I'm assuming better? Didn't they used to give something to people with MG to see if they'd get worse? I remember reading something like that, but they had to stop it because people would sometimes almost die...

I don't know...This seems really weird...

Imagine how many other people are going through the same problems because the doctors don't know what they're doing...How are you supposed to even know what to do/where to turn when you have to tell the docs. how to do their job? This is so weird...
