Default Chinese meds for MG

I have read that Astralgalus root, Reisi Mushrooms and Huperzine A have been used for centuries in China and Europe to treat a variety of diseases including MG. There are several medical papers about them. I have taken the mushroom extract for about a week and seem to feel stronger. Huperzine A is used as a substitute for Mestinon because it also inhibits Acetylcholinerase and has no side effects like diarrhea and water retention.

There are some side effects with Astagalus but I have talked to patients on other support groups and they say that they no longer take Predinisone or any other drugs.

What do you think? Can you please check in your data base?
Thanks, Fandangoman
