My dentist has a family member with MG--what are the odds? As a result, he is cautious and informed. He calls my doctor before he gives me an antibiotic, for example.

My dentist orders a freezing solution that does not contain adrenaline. I think I mentioned to him that "the infamous needle" relaxes me to the point of sleep which is an unusual (or paradoxical) reaction to say the least.

It's important to keep up your dental health. If you have trouble keeping your mouth open, they have a little gadget for that. Tell your dentist (and hygenist) that if you raise your arm (what ever signal works for you) they are to stop.

And thanks...you and Kathie have reminded me that it's time for a cleaning...
