Do you have problems swallowing?
Myasthenia gravis causes weakness of the swallowing muscles of many individuals, leading to problems involving choking, a terrifying experience, https://myasthenia-gravis.com/living/swallowing-speaking-symptoms, https://myasthenia-gravis.com/diet, and https://myasthenia-gravis.com/living/barium-swallow-experience.
Have you had problems swallowing before? What foods are tolerable? How do you manage to take any prescription pills?
I start my 2nd series of Vyvgart Hytrulo next Wednesday (6/18/2025). I think I waited too long since my last treatment and I am having trouble swallowing and a lot of weakness. I can still eat solid food but I can feel the difference. When I had this previously, I could only eat soup, so I still have plenty of that.
Yes
before IVIG as MG got really bad, i had to mash my pills into pudding to get them down. since being on IVIG, i can eat, chew and take pills without issue.
Unfortunately yes. Isn't it amazing how much is unknown on mg treatments.
