Sorry, but I dont think your question can be answered over the internet. The decision to treat for an MG flair requires a thorough physical exam. It may be worthwhile to note that MG can be very difficult to treat, and its reasonable for your doctor to be conservative and bring you into the hospital. If left untreated it can be rapidly fatal, especially if youre at home.
Myasthenia gravis and respiratory infectionHi my first language is not english so please excuse any mistakes. I (24f) have Myasthenia gravis and even though I take several immunosuppressants such as Prednisolon, Azathioprin and weekly Efgartigimod alfa infusions my symptoms are quite severe.I had multiple myasthenic crises the last few months. The last time I was in the hospital was this January because my symptoms worsened due to a covid infection and I was treated with intravenous immunoglobulins and nirmatrelvir/ritonavir. I was released 10 days ago.Two days ago I started to notice that I have symptoms of a respiratory infection (coughing, runny nose, sore throat, breathing is difficult and so on) and the symptoms of my MG worsened too. I am really afraid to call my doctors because they work at the hospital and when my symptoms get worse they admit me to the hospital. I can't stand hospitals anymore. I had several plasmapheresises, was intubated, had a feeding tube, a thymectomy and so on. I am very thankful for all their efforts and they saved my life several times but everything in me has the urge to be as far away from the hospital as possible...Do you think I should be admitted again or is there any possible solution to treat this at home? And if I contact my doctors would it be irresponsible of them to treat me at home?
