mestinon on an empty stomach
Hi All, This is my first post to this forum. I have had MG for 40+ years. I take mestinon, prednisone and IVIG. Mestinon has always been hard on my stomach but it is worse now that I am older. I need to constantly keep my stomach fed or I get gassy, nauseous and worse. Much worse. I also get serious headaches.
My problem is now I must have a colonoscopy. I have to get through a day and a half without any food.
I already have a medication called glycopyrrolate which the doctor gave me to help with the stomach problems, but it only works a little...not all day!
Yikes. I don't think I can get through a whole day and 1/2 without using mestinon either. I'll be rolling right off the table. How will I get ON the table. Has anyone ever done this and do you have any tips or suggestions for me?
Thank you,
