+## MySQL Health Check
+
+This health check verifies the ability to communicate with a MySQL Server.
+It uses the provided [MySqlDataSource](https://mysqlconnector.net/api/mysqlconnector/mysqldatasourcetype/) or a connection string to connect to the server.
+
+### Defaults
+
+By default, the `MySqlDataSource` instance is resolved from service provider.
+(This should be the same as the instance being used by the application; do not create a new `MySqlDataSource` just for the health check.)
+The health check will send a MySQL "ping" packet to the server to verify connectivity.
+
+```csharp
+builder.Services
+    .AddMySqlDataSource(builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("mysql")) // using the MySqlConnector.DependencyInjection package
+    .AddHealthChecks().AddMySql();
+```
+
+### Connection String
+
+You can also specify a connection string directly:
+
+```csharp
+builder.Services.AddHealthChecks().AddMySql(connectionString: "Server=...;User Id=...;Password=...");
+```
+
+This can be useful if you're not using `MySqlDataSource` in your application.
+
+### Customization
+
+You can additionally add the following parameters:
+
+- `healthQuery`: A query to run against the server. If `null` (the default), the health check will send a MySQL "ping" packet to the server.
+- `configure`: An action to configure the `MySqlConnection` object. This is called after the `MySqlConnection` is created but before the connection is opened.
+- `name`: The health check name. The default is `mysql`.
+- `failureStatus`: The `HealthStatus` that should be reported when the health check fails. Default is `HealthStatus.Unhealthy`.
+- `tags`: A list of tags that can be used to filter sets of health checks.
+- `timeout`: A `System.TimeSpan` representing the timeout of the check.
+
+```csharp
+builder.Services
+    .AddMySqlDataSource(builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("mysql"))
+    .AddHealthChecks().AddMySql(
+        healthQuery: "SELECT 1;",
+        configure: conn => conn.ConnectTimeout = 3,
+        name: "MySQL"
+    );
+```
+
+### Breaking changes
+
+In previous versions, `MySqlHealthCheck` defaulted to testing connectivity by sending a `SELECT 1;` query to the server.
+It has been changed to send a more efficient "ping" packet instead.
+To restore the previous behavior, specify `healthQuery: "SELECT 1;"` when registering the health check.
+
+While not a breaking change, it's now preferred to use `MySqlDataSource` instead of a connection string.
+This allows the health check to use the same connection pool as the rest of the application.
+This can be achieved by calling the `.AddMySql()` overload that has no required parameters.
+The health check assumes that a `MySqlDataSource` instance has been registered with the service provider and will retrieve it automatically.
