How about milk thistle, I read that it has been used for decades for myasthenia gravis as wel as cerosis of the liver but the neuro dr. Did not want dad taking it, mostly cause they don't have the medical history of complication of other drugs, the neuro dr. Said to check with the liver specialist but that dr didn't hav any idea what I was talking about, therefore he won't allow it! He has Ben doing vey well the last 3 months besides the normal diarea with the mestinon. He has cut his prednisone from 40 mg To 10 mg , small prescription of cell cept twice a day, and mestinon 60 mg 3 times a day, I want him to cut out his mid day mestinon to help gastric problems , it doesn't seem to charge him up as most or people, recently he swallows breaths , holds his head up. I've seen it for this last year. 4 Icu stays. I watchd it go thru his whole body, even arms and legs, Couldn't walk, etc. now after much water retention problems he's on a cane, getting around pretty well, life is kinda back to normal, I'm lost, I told the dr. I thought it burnt out, she said it not the flu doesn't go away, They were going to have him do plasm exchange every 3 weeks, yet now it's been almost 4 months, thanks fo listening!
