Hi Brandon - welcome to the best place to learn about mg!

When I was diagnosed 10 years ago, I had never heard of mg (much like most of the people here!) I'm lucky because I found this site fairly quickly and was able to get a lot of my questions answered.

I wanted to inject a quick comment about the CT scan of your thymus. They can't always tell what is going on with the thymus with a CT scan - I was diagnosed in 2000 and had my thymectomy in 2005 because I was going to have to some surgery in the general area of the thymus and since they were going to cut me anyway, I wanted the thymus out. My CT scan hadn't shown any enlargement or tumors, but when they removed the thymus, I had a State II tumor for which I had to have radiation.

Also, my understanding is the younger you have thymectomy, the better results you may obtain. (Again, everyone's different and there are no absolutes with mg!)

Good luck with your decision - in my experience, the more information you have, the better decision you can make.
