Default Yes! Yes! Yes!

I had that problem for months! No one would believe me - not even my hubby - people just thought I was being dramatic......if you look in the rear view mirror after resting your eyes for a bit, you'll notice that one eye is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay off balance. Your eyes are literally rolling around in your head.

I had to stop drviving all together until I started pred - voila (!) problem solved!

You may want to rest your eyes by icing them down as well - that is what my neuro did to test me for MG...........

Sounds like you need some stronger meds pretty soon!

Hang in there!

Sometimes it would just slip away in an instant and my eyes would be closed again. I had too keep my eyes closed at the stoplights to try to rest them. The effort of trying to keep them open actually made me nauseous. The drive was agony and by the time I got home I just fell into bed and slept for 2 hours.

Has anyone ever had this problem before?!?
