I'm on pins and needles till tomorrow. I'm sure as this plays out she will get over that shyness because this board makes you feel like you aren't fighting this alone.
Hugs

Does anyone else out there have modulating only antibodies, besides Mike's sister and me? 3 - 4% of MGers only have those. I think it's funny how they say 3 - 4 percent. Why don't they get crazy specific and say 3.2 - 4.3 or something.  That number is probably higher.
I hope her appt. goes well. Drooping muscles are not normal, neither are weak ones. If she gets worse upon exertion, that's typical of MG. The more you do, the more acetylcholine you need. In MG, not enough acetylcholine gets to the muscles because the "doorway" that it goes through (from the nerve to the muscle) is either blocked by antibodies or destroyed by them.
Let us know how it goes. Or maybe she can!
