Default When to double up on Mestinon?

On average, I'm one of those people who can play sports, but pay the price with hours of sleep to follow. On rare occasions, I unexpectedly have these extreme episodes of weakness, but my most consistent MG problems have been breathing and relative weakness.

However, this past Saturday, I discovered something. One day, I accidentally took 120 mg dosage of Mestinon instead of 60mg. I played tennis, and I was not tired. I'm too scared to do that again, unless I know someone who has done that as a method. Since, last time I took too much Mestinon (by doctor's orders), I literally could not lift a muscle for hours, had to go to the ER.

So, I would like to know if anyone doubled up on Mestinon and had some success.
