Wonderful news!

I am open to hear of ways to help my MG!

This post came at a perfect moment when I came to the conclusion that Magnesium supplements help my MG. What perfect timing! It was just this morning when I was reviewing my MG journal, that I decided Magnesium helps greatly.

I was taking Magnesium twice a week, specifically "Amino Acid Chelated Magnesium - 100 mg" for a few months and I had improvement of my MG and had to cut back on my Mestinon since I started to get overdose symptoms. It took about 6 weeks for the Magnesium to start working. (I posted on here when I had these overdose symptoms, I was very worried and thought my MG was getting worse or I was developing some other health issue)

Just to be sure, I stopped the Magnesium, and my MG returned to "normal" and I had to increase my Mestinon back to the previous dose.

So I started the Magnesium again last week and today I am starting again to feel much better...and today I am feeling a little bit of a Mestinon overdose so I am going to take less Mestinon. And I am going to increase the Magnesium slowly until I am taking one every day.

Before I tried Magnesium I read a great post on this site by one of the moderators (Thanks mrsD!) about Magnesium and I felt hopeful.

If anyone wants to take Magnesium please be careful since it is on the list of things to be cautious with if you have MG. I am going to look for that post about Magnesium. I did a lot of research before I decided to take Magnesium

This experience makes me feel hopeful that there are other things to do to help.

Rob, I want to hear more.

I know there is no cure for MG, but it does seem like a change of diet/habits can make MG much much easier to live with, with a chance for a symptom free life. Just that chance of feeling a little better is enough for me to change my lifestyle and eat differently, much preferred by me over drugs if it is possible.

Nice to meet you.
