Default Directed towards plasmapheresis patients

Hey All.

I have bulbar MG, and had a thymectomy the 30th of september. Though previous to the surgery, I had six sessions of plasmapheresis. I was feeling normal (from the plasma exchanges). I started the plasma exchanges the 16th of september, and was done the 29th. Now im feeling symptoms back, such as having to stop when coming up the stairs, not being able to brush my teeth at night, etc. I was just wondering who else has had the plasmapheresis and how long after having it, they started feeling weak again. The thymectomy is said to take 8 months to 10 years to show signs of help.

Thanks.
