    Hi, gscruiser! I have MG and use one intermittently. I cannot exercise yet (condition not stabilized: exercise brings on flares). But I CAN watch my calorie intake and macro/micro nutrients! I believe that there is much we can do to improve our life-and that improving our health is a great start! I have done pretty well (going on week 3). I like the tools provided for us and the people I have met/seen posts from seem like a good community to belong to! Best wishes on your journey!!!

    Good luck. Just cause you're in a wheelchair doesn't mean you have to miss out. I have curled with wheelchair curlers. Wow they're amazing. Good luck reaching your goals
