What questions do you wish your neurologist would ask?

When MG patients walk into a neurologist's office, they often hope the doctor will look past the MRI scans and reflex hammers to see how their condition is reshaping their world. What questions do you wish your MG neurologist would ask?

  1. Does anyone here have thyroid issues and were you told thyroid problems can cause mg

  2. I wish my doctors would ask about any medication side effects I might be experiencing. Instead they seem to assume that as as long as the MG symptoms are addressed the medication is perfect.

  3. How are you sleeping? After a typical daily physical activity, such as cooking, do you need to rest every day? After rest, can you do another activity or must you rest the remainder of your day?
    Who supports you? What does that support look like?

  4. how are you truly doing?

    1. how are you doing? We understand how challenging it can be physically, mentally and emotionally to manage MG. Please know our community is here to support you, you’re not alone💙. Thinking of you, Julie (team member)
