Thank you SO much, Annie.
I did ask if I didn't need a little bit of Atropine, but they said no.
The doc himself did think he knew what he was doing.
But I guess they didn't really get, just how awful I felt.

Days after, I still had issues. Intense muscle pains f.e. And of course, a total MG blow, so a few days 100% bed and liquid food once more for me.

Why Benadryl, it's an antihistamine I believe? I know some of those can make you tired, but does this one affect the muscles? (no, I will not randomly take anything without discussing with my doc, but I am curious how this works)
