My husband went to the doctor Tuesday for some inflammation around his eye, and the doc (not his usual PCP) expressed concern about his droopy eyelid and told him to see an opthamologist immediately. We were able to get in with an opthamologist that day, but found a group of opthamologists/optometrists that assured us that if we needed an opthamologist they could drag one in from down the hall. The optometrist did the ice pack test but didn't say anything about her findings. The next day she called us and said she wanted us to see the plastics guy in their group who specializes in eyelids. He did the ice pack test again, taking before and after pictures, and there was noticeable improvement. He mentioned myasthenia gravis and is referring us to a neuro, who can't get us in until April 30.

Is there anything besides myasthenia gravis that would cause a positive reaction to the ice pack test? We're trying to get an idea of what we're in for, waiting for a diagnosis isn't fun.
