my daughter and her husband are real big on going to the chiropracter. she mentioned to him about my mg and he told her that he could help me. i asked my daughter what he could help me with and she didn't know. i asked if he could help with this fatigue again she didn't know but he just told her he could help me. i'm very skeptical. of course i'm not going to do anything without asking my neuro dr. if feel very lucky cause i've got a good dr. that i'm seeing. the first one that i saw here where i live just wasn't as good as the one that i'm seeing now.

I have been using a chiropractor for my back for a few years now, it doesn't help with MG. If you find that your having weakness in the neck or back maybe have an MRi and see what they find. I did and I ended up having spinal surgery 3 days ago to fix it. I have also been MG free for a year. and only only had MG for 15 months.

We are all different so really best to find out for yourself if it will help you or not. They all say they can help cause it becomes a cash cow for them.

Let me know how you make out.
