That smile of a patient despite suffering, is a win for a doctor...you are a rockstar doctor 🤘🤘

[@sleepygrumpy]

Dr. Tubridy thank you for your *amazing* neurology history and examination videos -- I am an M3 in the United States and your lectures are nothing but strings of pearls. Thank you UCD for putting these lectures online and to all the patients in your clinics who made these videos possible. Thank you again Dr. Tubridy

[@harendrakkumar]

From a doctor, what a brilliant series. Thank you to the patient and Dr for this video. I still come back to this from time to time to brush up on my knowledge!

[@pradipFRCS]

[@daekemoon9571]

This neurology teaching cannot be any better. Thank you.

[@moorek1967]

Good thing there are still some doctors who are inquisitive about what their patients report. I don't see that very often.

[@PatrickTreacyAilesbury]

Great demonstrative videos with a level of insightful knowledge that you always had in the art of teaching medicine

I wish this Dr lived in Missouri.. He knows his stuff!

Antibody more commonly seen in focal myasthenia gravis is against muscle specific receptor tyrosine kinase and in generalised more common in against acetylcholine receptor . Excellent teaching doc 🙏🙏

[@veenaswami6293]

In September 7 2020,my father was diagnosed with MG and the doctor immediately on the next day Started the treatment of plasmapheresis (series of 5 plasma infusion every alternate day) but before the 5th infusion my father passed away.he had fatty liver but he had taken good care of diet & exercise. I just want to know,Dr, what the treatment he gave is correct?? When he knew my father had fatty liver and heavy dosage of medicine can give him side effects.... infact he didn't even give us the guidance nor the chance to understand the severity of disease which we had never heard off. I feel really guilty till to this day that we should not have taken him to that doctor....

[@emangameil3396]

[@johnkammer277]

Hi, I was diagnosed with MG in January 2012. Shortly after the diagnosis I switched to a vegan diet after reading about auto immune disorders in the book The China Study, by T. Coin Campbell. My symptoms slowly mitigated over a four month period. I now have slight throat and facial muscle impairment but the drooping eyelids and double vision are gone. Eliminating animal protein and excess fat from my diet made all the difference in my recovery.

[@_DrDrakeRamoray]

Another Vegan with their own agenda promoting more books. Niggapleazz.

[@johnkammer277]

Well Dr. I don't sell or promote books. However after 4 months on a whole food plant based diet 95% of my symptoms have gone away. My only object is to inform people that this diet may work for them and there are no bad side effects. So maybe you should check it out and possible help people get well.

[@szqsk8]

Dr. Drake Ramoray With all the "cures" out there (baking soda, coconut water, coconut oil, spirulina, juicing, vegan diets, vegetarian diets, raw diets, no sugar diets) why is anyone sick at all if it's that easy? These diseases are as old as the hills and will most likely plague the human race till the end of time.

[@szqsk8]

John Kammer Sorry for your diagnosis. I work in a six-Doctor neurology office and see patients every day battling an array of neurological issues. There is no harm in changing ones diet but patients need to be aware the of all the 'quack' stuff on the Internet (especially any supplements being touted as having supposedly been kept 'secret' by the medical community). Before doing anything drastic always discuss it with your doctor first.

[@johnkammer277]

Hi Tracey, Sorry to hear about your condition. I am so surprised that you are vegan and acquired an auto-immune disorder. From all I have read over the last four years, it seems you need a leaky gut and some type of partially digested animal protein to get MG. When I got MG I was taking a lot of ibuprofen and having protein smoothies with dairy milk and whey protein. As a vegan do you consume any processed foods? Processors sometimes have whey or other dairy protein way down on the ingredient list. Good luck with your tests, stay vegan, and your symptoms may get better.

[@zachimm4750]

To the uploader, please help me. Do you know how to find Dr. Niall tubridy? I badly need his help. I am from Philippines and my doctors find it hard to distinguish what disease I have. They keep giving me test and yet no answetd were found. They suspect it as myasthenia gravis. Please help me
