Myasthenia gravis patients not living near an existing support group may take advantage of this peer-to-peer mentoring service. With Telephone Friends, newly diagnosed patients are paired with myasthenic mentors who have lived successfully with myasthenia gravis for some time and volunteer to help others understand and cope with this disease. Communication is via the telephone or email.
To request a “Telephone Friend” contact MGFC at (800) 574-7884 or (323) 887-0056
