I often get this problem when driving. It is scary isn't it. I have to drive 100 miles to my Dr and sometimes feel like I cannot keep the eyelids up and see. It comes on so suddenly and you can't seem to stop it. I don't have any answers - sorry - I am trying to be diagnosed myself.

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?!? |
