Did you take any fluoroquinolone antibiotics in the past, recent past or recently? No

What drugs are you on exactly? There are lists of drugs that are known to cause PN.
Mestinon, cellcept, prednisone,
nexium, creon,
synthroid,
iboprofen 600,
benicar,
flonase, claritin
temezapam



The ankle is wrapped in tendons...should these become damaged from certain antibiotics, then the ankle will loosen.

Have you had a good podiatrist check out your feet and ankles for any other pathology besides the MG? Sometimes a good orthotic can do wonders. (this happened for my son).
Have not seen a podiatrist



October 2013 Severe Reaction to flu shot; sent me to ER, with acute myasthenia gravis exacerbation. No flu shot in Fall of 2014.
