Title: Blepharospasms Anyone?
Post by: Patze on June 12, 2009, 07:58:12 PM
I'm starting to rethink visiting doctors!  Everytime I get near one, something else is "discovered"!  ;) :D

I'm just checking to see if anyone else has blepharospasm?  I currently have it in my left lower lid, and it's starting in my right lower lid too.  If you do have it, has it progressed?  Do you use any meds for it?  Or have you had the Botox shots?

Thanks much in advance!

I get those too! They tend to come and go, and are more of a nuisance than anything else. I get them more when I'm tired or stressed.

It is weird, isn't it?  I thought that it was just because my eyes are so dry, but it seems that the dry eyes have led to the the spasms (no history of this in my family), yuck.

It's a strange feeling, but like you Kathy, it's not 24/7, but enough to drive me crazy (I know, short leap! ;) :D).
