There's a treatment called venom immunotherapy designed to desensitize people to insect venom. People tend to get more sensitive to venom when stung occasionally, but less sensitive with more frequent exposure. Venom immunotherapy has been shown to change the way the immune system reacts to the venom. There is a chance this change could lessen MG symptoms. Of course, it could also make things much worse, which is why I've been looking for a MG researcher interested in reviewing it before we try anything. *admin edit*
