Default Steroids and MG
Hello, everyone....I'm frustrated because my brother has had MG for years and he has refused steroid treatment. Now, he plans to have his amalgam fillings replaced, thinking that his MG is caused by mercury poisoning. He's lost about 30 pounds (he needed to lose weight) because he has trouble chewing.
My husband and I have been trying for over a year to get him to consider steroid treatment, but he says he's afraid of the side effects, especially diabetes.

Thanks for "listening/reading".
