Anacrusis, This is being taken out of context! When someone has MG and is not in any form of remission, no, you can't "control" it. You can "manage" it via medications, rest, staying out of heat, etc. But you cannot control the disease state. It is unpredictable, even when managed well. The point in saying this is often for newly diagnosed MGers who think they can push and push and not get worse, thereby ending up in an MG crisis. The only thing in life one can "control" is oneself, IMO.

It seems that Llonghair has answered a lot of your questions already.

Anacrusis, Were you officially diagnosed with MG? What tests and doctor diagnosed you? What do you see as the factors that brought you into remission? And was that confirmed by a doctor? Are you currently on any drugs for MG? I'm sure that would be helpful to the conversation as well.
