A 52-year-old woman had a 14-year history of stridor attacks. Pulmonary function tests revealed reversible airway obstruction, and bronchial asthma was diagnosed. She also has bilateral ptosis, diplopia, and moderate weakness of all four limbs; a positive edrophonium test confirmed the diagnosis of myasthenia gravis. Although the parasympathetic system plays an important role in the regulation of bronchial tone, in this patient the edrophonium test did not provoke an asthmatic attack or exacerbate pulmonary function, except for increases in sputum production and in frequency of cough. The general weakness was usually worse in the afternoon. The decrease in grip strength and the shortening of arm elevation time also occurred after asthma attacks, which means that general muscle fatigue was caused by the work of breathing. Furthermore, dyspnea increased and pulmonary function worsened when an anti-cholinesterase inhibitor was discontinued, probably because of respiratory muscle weakness. Accordingly, the clinical status of bronchial asthma seemed to change in parallel with that of the myasthenia gravis.
