This goes hand in hand with the immune shifts of pregnancy and offers extremely valuable clues toward effective nutritional support for patients with MG. MG patients need to support their immune system, balance it, and prevent any constant stressor from flaring them up. Chiropractic care is very effective to aid in immune boosting, as well as balancing the immune system nutritionally. Advanced blood chemistry analysis will give an insight as to how a patient should be properly supported.
The nutritional focus on these patients is geared primarily on immune support and balancing. Very interesting point in this article is that women with this disease frequently have remission of symptoms during 3rd trimester pregnancy which is very much related to immune shifts. Chiropractic care and nutritional immune support very effective!

Additional resources from MEDLINEplusWhat is Myasthenia Gravis?
Myasthenia gravis is a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease characterized by varying degrees of weakness of the skeletal (voluntary) muscles of the body. Symptoms vary in type and intensity. The hallmark of myasthenia gravis is muscle weakness that increases during periods of activity and improves after periods of rest. Muscles that control eye and eyelid movements, facial expression, chewing, talking, and swallowing are often, but not always, involved. The muscles that control breathing and neck and limb movements may also be affected. Myasthenia gravis is caused by a defect in the transmission of nerve impulses to muscles. Normally when impulses travel down the nerve, the nerve endings release a neurotransmitter substance called acetylcholine. In myasthenia gravis, antibodies produced by the body’s own immune system block, alter, or destroy the receptors for acetylcholine. The first noticeable symptoms of myasthenia gravis may be weakness of the eye muscles, difficulty in swallowing, or slurred speech. Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune disease because the immune system–which normally protects the body from foreign organisms–mistakenly attacks itself.. It is not directly inherited nor is it contagious.
Is there any treatment?
Myasthenia gravis can be controlled. Some medications improve neuromuscular transmission and increase muscle strength, and some suppress the production of abnormal antibodies. These medications must be used with careful medical follow up because they may cause major side effects. Thymectomy, the surgical removal of the thymus gland (which often is abnormal in those with myasthenia gravis), improves symptoms in certain individuals Other therapies include plasmapheresis, a procedure in which abnormal antibodies are removed from the blood, and high-dose intravenous immune globulin, which temporarily modifies the immune system and provides the body with normal antibodies from donated blood.

Social Media Blocked In Your Country? Email Keeps The News Flowing
Social media’s role in the Tunisian revolt has been well documented. The contributors to a Posterous site, 24sur24.posterous.com, were responsible for sharing some of the most powerful videos of the street uprisings.
With Twitter and Facebook now shut down in Egypt to quell government protests, email is the only reliable sharing platform left.
Same story in China. If you’re living or traveling there, email posting via Posterous Sites or Groups is the only way to get videos and photos to your Posterous site and reposted to Twitter and Facebook.
Sharing information to people in a country that blocks social media is also difficult. Posterous solves this problem by delivering the full content of your posts via email to your subscribers. This means that anyone with access to an email account can read your posts, even within a blocked country.
I used Posterous to update client’s blogs.
I never thought of it as revolutionary.
Thanks Posterous.
Work Related Injuries
The best remedy and solution for work related injuries/Workers Compensation cases is to immediately get your spine checked by a spinal specialist, a Chiropractic as soon as you can after the accident. This is for a good reason. Why? Because some 13 separate studies in various states have repeatedly found that chiropractic care gets people back to work much sooner and at far lower costs than medical care for the same type of on-the-job back injuries.
Chiropractic care for work related injuries usually leads to fewer chronic cases, and gets people back on their feet and back to work sooner. Why? Because we get to the underlying root cause of the problem, which is usually spinal cord pressure. Chiropractic care is the first line of defense for these types of traumatic injuries to the spine, due to a work related accident. Study after study has proven this. This is great for the patient and reason enough to choose chiropractic care for work related job injuries.
Work Related Injuries: Danger Signs
The danger signs indicating the need for a chiropractic examination following work related injuries are:
- Recurring headaches
- Pain and muscle tension in back of neck or between shoulders
- Stiffness or pain in lower back
- Loss of sleep-Insomnia
- Nervous tension-fatigue (nerve exhaustion)
- Numbness or pain in the arms, hands, legs or feet
- Muscle spasms or painful joints
