Alice,

You're right--that's really disturbing. What do you think is going on here? Is MG somehow not being recognized as a bona fide disease, even though the mechanics of it are known?

I mean, I know there are some diseases that are recognized as real, like fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome, but whose causes aren't fully understood. I know that since the causes aren't understood, there's a prejudice against them. But I don't understand why MG would suffer from the same prejudice, since we know exactly which part of the neuromuscular junction is being attacked, etc.
