Kimmy, I just wanted to say that looking through old posts might be helpful. I haven't had a thymectomy, so I can't give you any advice. Surgery is a big deal with MG and, if your MG isn't do great, they often do plasmapheresis or IVIG to make sure you're strong beforehand. They may even do it afterwards.

Surgery is hard to recover from. You can't lift kids for weeks afterwards! Which procedure are you having?

I hope it goes well for you. Call in the cavalry, because you'll need a lot of help in the first few weeks. Take care.

Annie
