Myasthenia gravis-03

Patient Wang Ming, male, 45 years old, robust physique, formerly a senior swimming coach. He suddenly developed progressive symptoms of myasthenia gravis, including limb weakness, ptosis, and difficulty swallowing. After detailed examinations, he was diagnosed with severe myasthenia gravis.

Mr. Wang initially experienced progressively worsening muscle weakness, particularly noticeable during daily activities or exercise. His most distressing symptom was difficulty swallowing, which made eating and drinking challenging and risky.

Due to poor response to traditional treatments, doctors decided to try CAR-T cell therapy. This treatment involves modifying the patient's own T cells to target and destroy nerve-muscle junctions attacked by their own immune system. Mr. Wang underwent a series of CAR-T treatments, with close monitoring of his immune responses and muscle strength after each session.

After several months of treatment, Mr. Wang's symptoms began to significantly improve. His muscle strength gradually recovered, and swallowing difficulties noticeably decreased, allowing him to engage in daily activities comfortably. Physical tests showed his muscle condition and physical abilities were approaching normal levels.

Upon completion of the treatment, Mr. Wang expressed deep gratitude and joy. He recalled the helplessness he felt during the severe swallowing difficulties initially and now finds happiness in being able to enjoy daily life again. He especially thanked the medical team for their professionalism and care, crediting their treatment and support for helping him regain health and freedom.
