Default Struggling To Keep My Eyes Open

Help!!! Am I the only one who has this problem? I was driving my kids to school this morning and I was having to fight to keep my eyes open. It wasn't a lid problem, it was a problem with the muscles controlling my eyes. They just wanted to roll up and I kept pulling them down and then sometimes I'd lose my "grip" and I'd get double vision and have to concentrate to pull out of that. 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?!?
