Those of you who have gone through dx shinanigans will get a chuckle out of this.

I am sero-neg, and very borderline SFEMG (as of tests 2 years ago). I take Mestinon every day as prescribed by my neuro (who was never hung up on the negative test results.)

So a few months ago, I apply for private healthcare insurance. I'm healthy with no dx documented by any test results. But I got rejected by every company to which I applied. Reason?

I take Mestinon and that means I have MG which therefore means I am only insurable through a High Risk Pool!!! .... with a high risk premium!!

Don't ya just love it??!!
