Hi, Tyson. I didn't know you were seronegative. There sure are a lot of us. It makes me really doubt the statistics I've read.

I was also doubting my diagnosis, but my response to IVIG helps me to be confident that at least this is an autoimmune disease. And since Imuran treats not just MG but autoimmune diseases in general, that's all I need to know. It's the same with you--you're on IVIG, prednisone and Imuran, which are all treatments for autoimmune diseases. Does that make sense? It's just what seems reasonable to me. At one point, before I got my diagnosis, my neuro even brought up the possibility of using IVIG diagnostically, but he ended up referring me to another doctor instead.

I'm sorry to hear that things are so hard.

Abby
