Krysse, I hope others will answer your questions in more detail, but I just wanted to say that I have read here more than once that Prednisone can make MG symptoms worse at first. My neurologist told me once that for this reason, it has to either be started when the patient is admitted to the hospital, or else gradually. So if he is going to start at home on a high dose, at the very least someone should watch him carefully and be alerted to the danger of worsening symptoms. Sorry I don't have more details--I just figured I'd better say that right away, if he just got the prescription.
