Default intro
hi everyone. noob to this forum and to mg. i was diagnosed around 3 mos. ago. confirmed by antibody blood tests. also nerve condutivity study (ouch!) had misdiagnosed ptosis off and on for 2 years previously, finally new symptoms presented during a particularly nasty bought of the flu. always good to have answers, even if they aren't the ones we want.
i'm curious about new treatments and in particular, an alternative to steroids developed in israel. see my thread on same. i am not interested in alternative medicine, prayer or voodoo.

Hello and welcome, no voodoo here that I am aware of..LOL. I have had MG for over 18 years but as of today I take no medication for it {to many allergies to meds} so I just control my MG with rest and planning.
