Default maybe not the mestonon at all

High probability that this has never happened with a person with a positive diagnosis.
My hubby has been dealing with MG for almost a year...He has tested positive,started with mestonon and is now on CellCept. The mestonon only took care of the drooping eyelid, while he needed the stronger meds for the double vision. It just seems to me that if your symptoms are worse it is probably the MG itself....the one thing we have found about this disease is that it is very unpredictable, and no two people are even the same. But you may have to suggest something stronger. Also several people here said how important it is to check the B 12. He was checked for that and it was low borderline, so he is on pill for that also. Hope this helps.
