Default Information needed on EMG failing

Biggest Roadblock for a more Solid Diagnosis of Myasthenia is the darn EMG. Closest piece of relevant info I saw is data saying some MG folks must be off Mestinon for more than 24 hours before EMG for good results. Even as much as a week. Given my experience I would need at least 3 or 4 days off it. My old internist was only one that would consider that. If anyone can point me to other factors I would be grateful. I suspect other diseases could be a factor. I also have Sjogrens. I know the quality of who does the test matters as Mayo Clinic won’t accept results from University of Iowa or places in City I live in. I know there is likely info on this site. Me and my eyes appreciate pointing me to it. Thank you. Sculptor 44
