Holy cow! I was recently diagnosed with generalized myasthenia gravis and just watching this video has spiraled me into a depression! I was doing fine and looked here for some pointers but thanks now I’m just depressed. Apparently I’m going to be poor and die anyway.
No, no depression. I have MG myself. I was put on Mestinon and CellCept. I went downhill on the CellCept, ended up in the hospital. I was in the 1% who couldn’t take it. I am weaning off CellCept. I started doing research. There are studies where CBN increases Acetylcholine and decreases the chemical attacking it. There are many people who have controlled their MG with CBD and THC. As I am weaning off the CellCept I have started using a tincture of 10 parts CBD to 1 part THC. I am getting better and stronger everyday. My goal is to get it under control and hopefully, never take the harsh prescriptions again. Also research diet, get off sugars first and foremost, then cut back on processed foods. This is not medical advice but my story. With research, some trial and error, you will have your own story. Good luck and God bless!
I am having terrible side effects from prednisone. Anxiety , shaky and depression on 10 mg. Also on cellcept which is also causing same side effects at 500mg 2x a day.
Not me , I will never again in my life will I take prednisone, never ! I have the worse of the worse side affects from it , I am allergic to it , and I was just recently, (3 weeks ago) diagnosed with MG ! I see anther specialist on May 22 nd . I am some fearful but I will deal with it with Gods help! He’s brought me thru so many different illnesses! Thank you for your channel !
Would like some specific info about what those side effects are (to know what to be on the alert for) and how syptoms might increase with dosage. For example, I am taking 20 MG of pred daily for my MG. Is that enough to be deeply concerned about?
Hi! You can check out this article about "Prednisone Side Effects - The Ultimate List" Read and watch here: prednisonepharmacist.com/side-effects-solutions/prednisone-side-effects/
I started on 50mg a day, plus 1000mg of Celcept. ! After 6 weeks or so, I am down to 30mg and up to 1500mg of Celcept. I will gradually reduce 5mg every fortnight and try to sit on 2000mg of Celcept.

Dr Megan...is it ok to take vitamin d3 with Prednisone?
Yes it is generally fine. The doctors who prescribe it most recommend both calcium and vitamin D. You can find a good source of it at Nutranize.com
