I'm not aware of high cholesterol as a side effect of Mestinon, but I know that it's relatively common for people with MG to have autoimmune thyroid disorders, as well. High cholesterol is definitely one of the effects of being hypothyroid. All MG patients should have a thyroid function test (simple blood test) periodically.
