Can myasthenia gravis be cured?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. Can myasthenia gravis be cured?

Doctor's answer:

Myasthenia gravis is a disease caused by abnormal inflammation of the neuromuscular junction's neurotransmitter transmission. This condition is a type of congenital autoimmune disease, and once diagnosed, it cannot be completely cured. Lifelong oral medication is required to manage it, and it's important to pay attention to rest and avoid overexertion. If symptoms recur or worsen, it's necessary to seek medical attention promptly.
