Hey there! It is great to see you join our community. We are glad to welcome you. How long ago were you diagnosed? Are you on any MG treatments at the moment to help with your symptoms?

You bring up an interesting hypothesis of giving blood to potentially remove or reduce MG antibodies and/or symptoms. I think this certainly sounds plausible. Your idea of how blood donation could help ease antibodies and symptoms sounds similar to the plasma exchange process in which a machine removes the abnormal antibodies in your plasma and replaces them with healthy plasma.

For those with MG, donating blood is generally safe if MG symptoms are entirely under control. Still, many people with MG unfortunately become ineligible to donate blood due to certain medicines, other illnesses or medical conditions, and travel histories.
