Default Mg & ms?

Hi,
I'm new to the MG forum. I was diagnosed over 11 years ago with Multiple Sclerosis and was newly diagnosed a few weeks ago with Myasthenia Gravis.

Wondering if there are others with this combination, and what treatment do you take for the two. I currently take Tysabri for the MS, and Mestinon (generic) for the MG....but that combination will probably change when I go to the new specialist for the MG.

I have been experiencing MG symptoms for a couple of years, but the symptoms were attributed to my MS. I just love it when everything just gets blamed on the MS...ha ha.

So looks like I hit the auto-immune jackpot and have both. Are there others on here like me? And does anyone take Tysabri with Mestinon? (that combo is scaring me a little bit)
