• Eyes closing involuntarily (dark? Makes it better)

Just want to share that not many on this board say this...but I have this too! In 2001 when I saw my first Neuro/Optho...he susupected Blephrospasms and we tried to treat it. When it failed, that's when he went to the MS. I appreciated him looking at all possibilities. This doc to this day, calls me a 'probable MS patient'.

For me, my eyes squint and blink, forced eye closure, blurry vision, double vision and ghosting. To this day, these symptoms have never left. I've learned to live with it, so I don't mention it much. I guess when you've lived with a sx for many years it becomes a part of who you are.

This is a very visable sx to the outside world. It has dropped my self esteem and my confidence level. When I'm talking to people who don't know me, I feel so isolated and like a true freak! Anyway....just wanted to share that.
