What kind of doctor should a person with MG see?
A person should see his/her family doctor and mention his/her concerns about the disease. Neurologists (doctors who are experts in the area of the nervous system) are the most qualified to diagnose and treat MG. If the symptoms are limited to the eyes, ophthalmologists (eye doctors who have been to medical school) may take care of myasthenics. Because MG is not a common disease, many doctors are not familiar with the diagnosis and treatment of MG.
