Default Muscle and nerve doctor
I emailed my neuro couple days ago about my symptoms which have been getting worse. Whether i need aditional treatment beside mestinon. And this is her response
"Please follow up, if you wish I can also shceuled you with our Specialist on muscle and nerve. Steroids,thymectomy, IVIG or plasmapharesis during exacerbations are used. However, Mestinon is the main drug used."

Muscle and nerve specialist? What kind of doctor is this? I thought a neurologist handle muscle and nerve.
