I would also like to emphasize: the impact of emotional regulation and seasonal changes on the disease. Myasthenia gravis patients tend to get worse in bad mood and cold seasons in winter and spring. Patients must keep a good mood, improve their confidence to overcome the disease, pay attention to keeping warm and cold in winter and spring, reasonably use the effective food for myasthenia gravis, and prevent the recurrence of the disease.
