Frown The Smile Problem

Hi, everyone. I'm new here and was diagnosed with MG in August (although symptoms started about 6 months before). My symptoms remain quite mild at this point but one thing that is persistent and extremely annoying is the slow deterioration of my smile. Mestinon helps but it isn't doing enough. My facial muscles tire within minutes of laughing (sometimes seconds!). Does anyone have any tips for this problem? Have you discovered some sort of secret to be able to continue to physically smile?
