MemberIt’s a waste of money to test antibodies it has nothing to do with disease severity and once you have the antibodies they don’t go away. You have to get plasmapheresis and ivig regularly because the antibodies cleaned out are then replaced with new ones . Can’t escape MG, it’s lifelong unless they can figure out a new treatment that reprograms your immune system to not make them . Understand your treatments, it helps to know why you take immunosuppressants or other to discuss with your doctor.
