Confidence in your treatment regimen?

How easily or difficult is it for you to have faith and confidence in your treatment regimen?

Has this changed over time?

Do you doubt faith in doctor decisions or your own choices in your treatment regimen more?

  1. What are the treatments he is talking about?

  2. i was diagnosed three weeks ago in bad flare/exacerbation. I am on high dose pred, 60mg 3x day of mestinon, had 5 days ivig which helped a lot, and starting this week on cell cept. I am toleraing mestinon well and so far the pred. It is too early to say but I am stable right now and out if danger zone. Very grateful to my doctors in a big city at large hospital. They are keeping a close eye on me.

  3. Because you are never cured, you always wonder if you could be better. I am satisfied with my treatment and the result. But if I'm at 80%, the temptation is to wonder if maybe I could be at 90% if I tried something else. I resist that temptation. Stability is what I seek. And a stable outcome at 80% is so much better than all those years of ups and downs. My goal is to be good enough to push my MG into the background and go on about enjoying life.

  4. Very confident
