A member asked:
Being i suffer extreme anxiety and myasthenia gravis, how do i know if my anxiety is making mg symptoms worse or if its my mg help please!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anxiety may worsen: Many people with mg suffer from anxiety, though anxiety is not necessarily caused directly by mg; but having mg is stressful & can add to one's anxiety; being anxious is likely to aggravate mg. See http://www.Ncbi.Nlm.Nih.Gov/pubmed/19078747 i advise meditation. Consider qi gong. Magnesium (esp. As taurate) may help, as well as tulsi tea & l-theanine. Exercise helps & consider counseling too.
