The only remaining MG symptom is a rather severe weakness in the legs.
All other symptoms progressively disappeared since I was dx'ed in july 2007 and began treatment in August 2007, with a significant improvement step in January 2008.
I had also one plasmapheresis and 2 IvIg, but both treatments were unsuccessful.
My neuro wants to reduce pred as low as possible (I' ll go to 35 mg/d to-morrow), rely on Cellcept and adjust Mestinon as needed.
I do not have any Cellcept side-effects to report.
I think it would be a good idea to try Cellcept but be patient, it could take several months for Cellcept to be efficient…
Maurice.
