Coffee
 

I am new to this site. And I can see that these posts are about 4 years old. Very recently, I had an interesting event. I have not been a coffee drinker but recently started drinking coffee. I felt significantly better. I felt that I was getting more oxygen. Then I got worse where weakness is concerned. And my ankles became much weaker than usual, so bad I could barely walk. I had to stop drinking coffee. I looked on the Internet and found out that coffee is a bronchodilator, and on this site that it improves weakness with myasthenia gravis and makes it worse if you drink too much coffee.
I have not seen improvement with other caffeine sources, with the possible exception of chocolate.
How much coffee do you drink in a day, and how many grounds do you use in it?

has any had the soliris treatment?

chocolate it is
 

Amazing. That would (no joke) explain my "chocolate usage" (minimal - I also do not do flour or much sugar) yesterday. I've had to cut down my caffeine consumption, so I guess my body was screaming. Thanks for the info.:eek:

There is a sugar-free chocolate called ChocZero. They use monk fruit instead of sugar. That might be a good one for people to try.

Hi Kathie,
Thanks for starting this thread. I learned a lot of information. I drink coffee all day long. Didn’t realize I was helping my MG in the process.
Thanks,
Sandra
