This might not be what a doctor wants to hear, but here goes anyway. I have had MG for about a year. Started out needing just Mestinon and progressed to needing Prednisone with some Mestinon. I drink a lot, as in more than 6 drinks a day. I have PTSD and it's a problem for most of us. I have never noticed any problem or increase in symptoms from using alcohol, in fact if anything the opposite. I know that sounds weird, but it's true.

That having been said, I have never had a stomach problem with taking aspirin. My doctors say I should take something else because of possible stomach bleeding and I just say I'm 71 years old and have been taking aspirin on a regular basis for over 50 years. Do you really think something is going to change now?

Just my two cents.
