You have landed in a great place in this forum. There are some very knowledge people here. I've only been here a few weeks, but I have learned so much, and it has made a big difference. Another forum member directed me to a great document that is very helpful. It is available for free from the following link:

http://www.myasthenia.org/LinkClick....w%3d&tabid=125

The document is entitled Myasthenia Gravis: A Manual for the Health Care Provider. It is published by the Myasthenia Gravis Foundations of America. It is in PDF format. You can read it online using a Web browser, download it and read it offline with an Acrobat Reader, or you can have it printed and bound. I had mine printed. I will be taking it with me to my next appointment with my neurologist. I'm even going to put the PDF file on a thumb drive and give it to my doctor.

While the document is intended for healthcare professionals, there is much in it that can be helpful to us. None of us will read it from cover to cover or understand the more technical aspects. I found the sections on treatment to be especially helpful for me.

There is another recent thread on the topic:

Take care,
