See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Four women had undergone psychotherapy because of neurotic symptoms that were unrelated to myasthenia gravis.At the end of psychotherapy,their myasthenic symptoms had greatly improved or disappeared.Psychotherapeutic techniques may be helpful in patients with neurotic or reactive psychiatric symptoms,but there is no general implication for psychotherapy in myasthenic patients,especially if there is adequate"somatic"therapy.
