There are studies that show that certain types of MG respond much better to prograf.
I hope you don't mind me asking,
Do you know what type of antibodies you have?
Was your EMG diagnostic?
How long did it take for the Prograf to work?
Good luck with your surgery, and hope it leads to further improvement.

Thanks Guys!!
Alice: No antibodies showed up on my blood test that was almost 3 years ago. The EMG was abnormal. The prograf took around a month before I saw improvement and at 3 months I was at my best. My saturation levels were outstanding. Since I've weaned off the prednisone, from 5mg, I've had to up my dosage from 3mg 2x daily to 4mg 2x daily.
