Thanks for the cross ref. Very interesting reviews, especially the IgG4 aspect, adds a whole new level to class switching. Would non specific igG4 do this too?

"IgG4 MuSK antibodies bind to the first Ig-like domain in MuSK and prevent low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 4 (Lrp4) from binding MuSK, thereby inhibiting Agrin-stimulated MuSK phosphorylation."

My Aunt in your late 70's developed MG three months after she received a DPT vax (she cut her head hence the doctors decided she needed DPT). Three months she was like paralysed . The drugs and IVGL work but would be nice if can be reversed naturally. I found high doses of Manganese helped greatly.

Thanks for the structured water hot cocoa recipe...I’m a hot cocoa freak. I bought all the ingredients for the water a while ago but haven’t made any yet.

It is so good. Daily habit for me now, if not twice a day. And now I found out my mom likes it too. Colder weather. She isn't into hot tea or coffee typically.

The structured water mix can take a little coconut milk too but anything too powdery/not dissolvable enough will separate out in the blending. I tried adding a little of my dimethylglycine powder and pHadjust bicarbonate powder and that didn't work.

Thanks for the tips! I just had a pine needle tea...yuck. But I know tea is healthy for you.

Yikes. Perhaps this explains my one droopy eyelid.

I had wondered if I was working on Bell's Palsy but this kind of fits because choline is one of the things I don't do well with genetically in the methylation cycles.

My sunflower lecithin caps ran out and I never replenished. Time to re-up!
