Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I see a neurologist. Is Myasthenia Gravis and muscular atrophy serious?Doctor's answer:
Myasthenia gravis falls under the category of "wasting syndromes" in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Currently, Western medicine lacks a specific treatment for it. It is recommended to use cholinesterase inhibitors and immunosuppressive drugs for treatment. Thymectomy is one of the effective treatment methods for myasthenia gravis. Antibiotics and lipid-lowering drugs should be used with caution. Pay attention to enhancing nutrition and encourage, and acupuncture can be combined with massage. Both family members and the patient should also exercise regularly, which is beneficial for the complete recovery of the condition.
