Annie, if you don't mind talking about it (if you do, just ignore this!), can you tell me your own story? I know you've had MG all your life, but have only been diagnosed for a few years (?). I know you're not on any immunosuppressants. Why not? Did you try them and have trouble with them, or did you decide the risks outweighed the possible benefits? What about IVIG or plasmapheresis?

Myself, I am getting great (geeky) pleasure out of making line graphs in Microsoft Word. I have different colored lines for symptoms, activity levels, and the hormones that govern my cycle. After two weeks of plotting, I see a strong correlation (I've named it the "Duh Correlation") between activity and symptoms. A day of heavy activity means the next day will have high symptoms. But I knew that. I'm also about to try, finally, the progesterone--which is a bit scary for me.
