Patient's question:
My mother has a tumor in the left orbit of her eye, which is myasthenia gravis. She is 65 years old. She has been sick for a year, and her vision has deteriorated, with drooping eyelids. What should be done about myasthenia gravis?Doctor's answer:
Patients with myasthenia gravis can choose hormone therapy. Hormone bolus therapy is also a method of gradually increasing hormones. When using hormones for patients with myasthenia gravis, treatment must be conducted under the guidance and monitoring of a doctor. The hormone treatment plan requires the doctor to gradually adjust the dosage based on the patient's condition, gradually reducing the dose. Some patients may need to use hormones for a long time, so they should not add or reduce the dose on their own. This is the hormone therapy method.
