Diagnosed with LRP-4 ocular MG 3 years ago. Began with 40mg prednisone daily to “pop” my eyelids open (Ptosis), which took weeks. Then tapered over time. Currently on 10mg daily which my neurologist at UC Davis believes is a relatively safe dose. Don’t seem to be able to reduce beyond that. My eyelids feel heavy and I get very tired. Taking additional calcium and D3 ( NO MAGNESIUM ! ) and really watch my diet. Want to be off the stuff ( my principal symptom now is fatigue ), but the newer treatments aren’t approved yet for my form of MG ( not enough participants for trial ) so am sort of stuck, getting by day by day…
