I am a little upset they have not done a CT scan on my Thymus yet. I see the neuro-optomologist next month and I am going to ask for a CT of the thymus. I had a large tumor removed from my thyroid 30 years ago. i am hoping they offer to take the thymus out. If they do I am going for it. From what I read, it is the best chance for a full remission. The last surgery exaccerbated the MG and I still have not recovered to my pre-surgery state and it has been almost a year. Even so, for me I think it is worth the risk to not have to deal with these symptoms at all.

good luck
kathie
