Hi, I yesterday asked a question about hormone. My father showed a bit of improvement after big doses of Dexamethasone. Laurel asked if the doctors ruled out Myasthenia.
Actually, they ruled it out AFTER they diagnosed my father with ALS. When my parents got the diagnosis, Mom put father in various clinics because we know that ALS should be the last, not the first option. However, as soon as the doctors saw his medical history, they said, "No, this is not ours." and just repeated the same diagnosis.
My father has had several symptoms not compatible with ALS, for example, his blood sedimentation rate is too high, which is an indication of inflammation but never happens at ALS. Nobody paid attention to that, and his disease progressed very fast.
Do you know how to rule out Myasthenia Gravis?
Thank you.
