There is hope!

Due to advances in treatment, the future for a patient with MG is very bright. In some cases, MG may go into remission for a time period when no treatment is necessary. While there is much that can be done, there is still much more to learn to better understand MG. Research is ongoing and will continue until a cure is found.
