I agree with what others are saying here about alcohol. I used to like a drink now and then for inspiration. It is definitely not good for MG, but I like Annie's idea of trying some in the morning or for lunch, lol. I am going to try your idea Annie, but only on a good MG day. I wonder if anyone will join me...

Tyson, I hope you are feeling better.

One should not drink while using Prednisone.

Pred is very hard on the stomach, and gastritis or gastric ulcers can form easily with people taking it alone. Add the alcohol, and you have a recipe for perhaps a bleed in worse case or at least inflammation, vomiting, heartburn, in minor cases.

I can't comment on the MG connection, and leave that to others here who have experience and knowledge with it.
