Members rallied around someone newly diagnosed with both chronic kidney disease and myasthenia gravis, offering heartfelt support and solidarity through a difficult time. Several members shared their own experiences managing kidney issues alongside MG, including kidney stones requiring treatment, transplant challenges, and the physical and emotional toll of caring for loved ones while managing their own health struggles. A recurring theme was finding strength through faith, prayer, and community connection, with members encouraging each other to stay hopeful, avoid stress, and trust in medical care while leaning on spiritual support.

Diane I had been praying for God to show me a sign for 4 days , so I waited until Friday the weather hadn't changed we were going to get hit with the first snow storm of the year , so I called my Neurologists office and asked when the next available appointment was they said Monday November 17th ( I had to sit down ) I told them I wanted to cancel my appointment for No ember 10th and reschedule it for the 17th the weather is going to be in the 50's , that was my answer to my prayers , because the next appointment wasn't until March, so I had good news , I'm so blessed❤

Diane my appointment went better than I could of imagined my MG is under control with Pyridostigmine 90mg 4 x a day and wearing prisoms and we have decided to start tapering off a med that I've been on for over 30 years , its a seizure med and I haven't had a seizure in 26 years might help with some of my balance issues🙏
