How is Myasthenia Gravis Diagnosed?

Patient's question:

Lately, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended checking with the neurology department. How is Myasthenia Gravis diagnosed?

Doctor's answer:

The main cause of myasthenia gravis is the hereditary factor and autoimmune factor. The main clinical diagnostic symptoms include drooping eyelids, blurred vision, and easy fatigue. Confirmation can be achieved through careful examinations such as thymus CT or MRI, and the Neostigmine test, and if necessary, a fatigue test can be performed. The commonly used treatment methods include taking immunosuppressants and cholinesterase inhibitors, and surgery may be considered if necessary.
