Myasthenia gravis with dysphagia, how should it be treated?

Patient's question:

Lately, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I see a neurologist. If I have dysphagia due to myasthenia gravis, how should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Now, the main issue is that myasthenia gravis has reappeared, causing difficulty swallowing, which I believe is quite severe and will affect normal eating. Frequently occurring symptoms include eyelid drooping, limb weakness, breathing difficulties, and eating difficulties. Generally, medication treatment is preferred for this condition. Immune globulin is usually chosen, combined with traditional Chinese medicine that replenishes qi, nourishes blood, and strengthens the spleen. This approach can gradually control the disease.
