I am sending for the kit and I will let you know how it goes. It takes about 8 weeks. It lists a bunch of auto-immune disorders such as RA, MS, lupus, sjogrens, chrons,and celiac. At this point in my life, 53, I would like to be on the look out of other issues. MG has so many symptoms, there are so many side affects of the MG drugs & treatment, and it took so long to get the MG diagnosis, I would like to be fore-warned if I have a predisposition to any other auto-immune disease.

If MG were on the list and I knew about this a year ago, I would have gladly paid $99 to narrow down the diagnosis and prevent a year of doctors and other unnecessary tests. Also, with my reduced energy and my life focusing around MG, I might miss or ignore some other serious symptom. MG tends to take over our lives.
