Hi Elisa, my Neurologist, who specializes in MG and other neuro diseases, used the term “Remission” with me even with some remaining neck weakness. I’ve never heard anyone use remission as a synonym for “cured.” I Googled “What is the medical definition of Remission?” Here’s the answer – “<b>A decrease in or disappearance of signs and symptoms of cancer</b>. In partial remission, some, but not all, signs and symptoms of cancer have disappeared. In complete remission, all signs and symptoms of cancer have disappeared, although cancer still may be in the body.”
So, just like MG is incurable doesn’t mean you have symptoms. Your neurologist sounds like they have a medical degree but not an English degree.
