The gyno will likely only give you hormones to induce a bleed, and the hormones of course have the potential to aggravate the MG. If you are in your mid-late 40's you could be peri-menopausal and missed cycles are also common.

It's funny how neuros just don't want to get involved with anything having to do with anything other than the MG! Once I mentioned I was having lots of migraines to my MG neuro, and she told me to see a neuro! LOL
hmm, wow. lol one doctor tells ya to go to the other. It can be an endless cycle I guess. Lets see, I am 31. The missed periods may be due to the stress levels I had been in too because of the whole hospitalization dying thing. I am seeing a hematologist for my anemia so perhaps I could ask her tomorrow. But It is a side effect of the prednisone so it could be the stupid 60mg of that crap daily. Thanks for all your replies, because to be honest I don't mind not having that period. lol, the horse is the period. lol
