I’ve had myasthenia Gravis for about 30 yrs and was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes a year ago. Can anyone share the pros and cons in there treatment if both. I was have IVIGs for about 10 yrs and just stopped last August due to insurance problems. My MG is doing pretty good except for Ptosis with my eyes. Ian not taking anything right now for the MG (waiting on insurance approval for new drops that came out). I am however taking glipizide for the diabetes, having a hard time keeping my numbers down, even with watching my carbs and sugar. Would love some input from others.
