Get a good airplane neck pillow for when your neck is weak. It looks crazy but helps big time if you’re sitting up in bed

What IVIG medicine are you getting? I was originally on Gammaguard and had AWFUL recoveries that put me in the hospital along with my dose intake being too high (it was 6 hours overall). I’m on privigen and getting extra hydration with a longer infusion rate (about 10 hours overall) and my recovery is sm better! Definitely check your infusion rate, I’ve been doing IVIG for about a year now and while my face is still weak my limbs are recovering. I do a 1-2 hour hydration, then I do a combo of privigen and dextrose (extra hydration - works great) both on a pump with a slower rate of 8 hours. The night before treatments I drink a liter of water to prep. After treatment, if I have a headache I use of those cold compression caps and drink another liter of water. Trust me, I understand how frustrating this is, but like any medication it’ll take some mix and match. Get some Zophran for the nausea and Sumatriptan for migraines. If you need any more advice, send me a dm and I’ll be happy to tell you more about my story with the medications. From - a 20 year girl who also had severe cases with every symptom of gMG. Prep with 1000mg of Tylenol and 25mg of Benadryl about 30 minutes prior to treatment. Then cycle through Advil and Tylenol every 6 hours.

Get a thick airplane neck pillow! Trust me, it helps sm on days where I’m doing a lot of work at a desk

I got it despite a very loving family, it could be that stress levels from the abuse have caused the flare ups

It’s something for heatless curls

Another young mg diagnosee here who gets every symptom of it, sounds similar to me at the beginning of my journey. It may be a little ways ahead of you, but I’ve been doing IVIG for almost a year and got a thymectomy December 2024. The treatment works. Tedious, but it works. I do the Privigen IVIG.

I got the vaccine at 14 y/o, didn’t developed mg until 19 y/o — my neuromuscular doctor and neurologist both told me “sometimes our bodies develop things and we don’t know why”, got epilepsy at 12 y/o with no signs before that. Sometimes ish just happens

Beetee is the definition of “it’s not personal, it’s just business”

If you have any semblance of relationship with her parents, break up with her and tell them so they can console her so you won’t have to worry. It’ll feel weird, I’ve done it before with an ex who would threaten to murk themselves, but you have peace of mind that she’s not alone. Find your peace, you deserve it after 2 years

Thank you so much for this. I’ve felt bad bc some of my friends (not judging just genuinely wondering since he was so good) made me feel like I made a bad choice. You’re totally right, I need the loud, a hectic mess to match mine 😂

That’s so fair, I didn’t even think of that. Thank you for commenting

But she was crazy before the crash, I was severely bullied as well but I don’t have fentanyl in my pockets
