Help

It seems that you are having a positive effect from the drug. The drug is not, however, benign for those with or without MG/CMS/LEMS.

Have your doctors done enough testing to rule MG in or out?

Default off mestonon

My hubby was only prescribed Mestonon for about 6 months, and was told that it only really works to droopy eyelid. He was also started on cell-cept, and has been on that a year. His eyesight is great now, and has some generalized weakness,etc. He has been very lucky that he has not had to be hospitalized for crisis....hoping for the best.
