And, my MG is just the opposite. Left eye droops much more than right one, left leg is weaker. However, when left eye is closed during eye exam(s) doc(s) often notice my right eye starts to droop. Very interesting....... south, I too have asked these very questions myself and asked doctors. So far, no answers. I think "they" are still working on curing the common cold! |

SoftTalker, It's called "enhanced ptosis" or the "see-saw effect."
http://archneur.jamanetwork.com/arti...ticleid=580026 If you have a dominant eyelid droop, pull up on that eyelid and then watch as that one goes up and the other goes down! They can go back and forth like that for awhile. You can do that if you look sideways at something too, which I often notice if I lie in bed and look at the TV from one side. It's a compensatory effect, not unlike how our other muscles operate! Annie |
