The reasoning behind my question is that I don't take any immuno suppressants for fear of high risk of cancer and I don't take Prednisone because of steroid psychosis. All I'm taking is Mestinon, but it doesn't work on every muscle. It works on my diaphragm, but not on my swallowing, my back, my chest muscles, etc... If there is another antibody at work and if there is a med that I can take along with the mestinon to help with these antibodies then I think it's something to look into.
