I’m one of those rare MG patients who, thanks to my wife’s tenacity, got onto Soliris infusions every other week.  Along with mestinon regimen, my diploplia (first sign I had MG two years ago) is fairly well under control with a few caveats:  1) if I forget to take mestinon or get stressed, 2) late in the day, watching television, I get to see two of everything.  Even though I’m 74, I decided to get a robotic thymectomy with Dr. Louie (Seattle, Swedish Medical Center).  Still waiting to see any changes…could take up to a year or longer but worth the risk to me.
