It can take up to a week of rest for my sore muscles to stop hurting, but once I am rested the pain goes away.

Pain from using weak muscles is absolutely a SECONDARY symptom of MG.
I want to piggy back on this for a moment. For the last 3 months I have been getting muscle spasms in my belly directly above my bladder, and if I climb a set of stairs my calves look as if there is an army of ants moving around underneath the skin... It looks really weird. In addition my hands and arms cramp very easily, and this can be quite painful. I had read about muscle fasciculation but I don't know if this is the MG or due to Mestinon any ideas? As always, Thanks
