    It’s a tough disease – I was diagnosed about 5 years ago and I struggled to wean myself from drugs and was successful.  Some light symptoms and some days better.

    but your immune system does not sleep.  So although your b and y cells are not active today something may trigger them. For me it was a cold a few months ago and for sure I thought it was covid.  Went to the ER and everything but it was just a cold.  You see the cold kicked off an immune response and the MG B and T cells decided it was a good time to go to work. My doctors said to go back on the pills and possibly an IVIG session.

    So remission is an ok phrase – similar to cancer.  You have no symptoms but it may come back.
