    This document discusses concepts related to the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), parasympathetic nervous system (PNS), and autoimmune diseases. The SNS uses epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine as chemical agonists during stress responses. Monoamine oxidase inhibitors break down these chemicals. Autoimmune diseases like myasthenia gravis are caused by stress and illness activating killer T cells and antibodies in a lifelong cycle of exacerbation and remission. Myasthenia gravis specifically causes muscle weakness due to a lack of muscle contraction.

    SNS- STRESSSED STIMULATED, EXCITED


    EPI IS ADRENALINE = ADRENERGIC SYSTEM
    ADRENERGIC CHEMICALS AGONIST– EPI, NOREPI, DOPA
    Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) BREAKS DOWN EPI, NOREPI , DOPA
    EVERYTHING HIGH AND LOW EXCEPT GI GU (COMPENSATORY MECHANISM)
    *PRONE TO STRESS ULCER, GASTRIC ISCHEMIA

    PNS – CHOLINERGIC SYSTEM


    ACETLYCHOLINE- CGOLINERGIC AGONISTS

    AUTO IMMUNE- lifetime


    ALWAYS EXACERBATION REMISSION
    Can be juvenile to adults
    Caused by stress and illness
    By killer tcells and anti bodies

    MG
    No muscle contraction – muscle weakness
    More on skeletal muscles not heart

    DEGENERATIVE – NO CURE
