Answer 1

I am discussing Myasthenia gravis.

Myasthenia gravis is a severe attack by antibody mediated T-cells on the Ach receptors on the post synaptic membrane.

It is characterised by Fatigue, extraocular muscle weakness bulbar weakness and proximal limb weakness.

It is a type of autoimmune disorder.

Other clinical features are-

Dropped posture, proximal weakness of upper limb, respiratory muscle weakness, dysphagia,dysarthria.

Treatment of myasthenia gravis include prescribing cholinergic inhibitors like pyridostigmine, azothioprine and steroids.

In 75% patients, thymus gland is enlarged in myasthenia gravis. This is because of hyperplasia. If thymus is enlarged quite enough, they we go for thymectomy.
