Default Ptosis? or something else?

Iīve had this very rarely and it surprises me that it should come at the end of a progression of myasthenic muscle sets to be involved and not at the beginning.

The left eye lid will droop just a little – itīs definitely mild, but it feels like more than just the eyelid is affected – around the cheek and eyebrow seem involved as well. One side of the face feels a bit like night and the other like day. I know itīs not a stroke as itīs fluctuating and will go away with a cooler breeze/change to a cooler room.

Does ptosis affect a larger area than just the eye itself?

Thanks
