For Dysautonomia "I have been on this a week and it seems to be significantly helping breathing issues at night, overall dryness everywhere, constipation, nausea, and urinary retention. Side effects, though, are very unpleasant-very blurry vision (especially at night or in darker lighting), headaches, pelvic pain, muscle cramps, and overall fatigue. I am currently taking a dose of 40 mg three times a day."

For Myasthenia Gravis "Medicine works well. I do experience muscle cramps, stomach aches, and muscle twitching at times. Blurred vision occasionally. Overall, satisfied with results."

For Dysautonomia "The good: less dizziness and blood pooling in legs due to POTS. The bad: I have all of the negative common side effects: I sweat horribly, I have a regular cough with mucus, I drool a lot and not just at night, I have frequent loose stool, my eyes are super blurry sometimes, and my tongue cramps so sometimes I sound like I've had a stroke or a severe speech impediment. Dose: 30-60 mg with dinner and 180 mg time span before bed. (I can't handle the side effects during the day.) I have been on this for over a year. I take this and accept the side effects because without it I would not be able to work due to my brand of POTS. The side effects aren't consistent, and my body metabolizes things differently every day."
