Then a couple months of normalcy, then this flare up in December which has continued for a much longer period of time. Since I'm still new to all this, I don't know what to expect....something new every day it seems. I'm on prednisone ( 30 mg) and mestinon (4 a day). Neurologist has said after IVIG, I will be on immuran(?). Comments please.

I totally understand I have been diagnosed since I was 22 and I'm now 33 what you are describing is very normal ivig always made me feel so much better it is like a reset button when I took it I also went on immuran be careful it's immuno suppressive which is great for mg but be ware of sick people u will catch things easier has you doc mentioned surgery yet I had it the first year but unfortunately it didn't help me
