I was diagnosed after just a few weeks of rapid on-set symptoms. First it was my left eyelid followed by muscle fatigue mainly in the arms and legs. Finally, my tongue effected my talking and eating. Minimal use of pyridostigmine initially worked, but I had to increase dosages after a few weeks. Duke clinic put me on minimum prednisone along with the pyridostigmine, and that worked for the next year until I was able to wean off of prednisone. Now I maintain with just pyridostigmine — 2 in the morning, 1 as lunch, 1 in the evening.
