    Eye Droop

    Hi everyone
    Just a quick question has anyone suffered from eye lid droop I have developed twitching in my right eye and then it sometimes just stays down . Hope this makes sense . My first contact with the Hospice has gone well and now receiving emotional support which is great the lady I spoke to was very knowledgeable and understanding. Take care everyone on this terrible journey.

    My husband did have this, we told hospice and it turns out it was a suspected TIA (mini stroke) nothing to do with MND at all. It has since rectified itself.

    Sadly passed away peacefully 2/9/22

        When I look at photos of myself I then notice eyelid dropping. But my weakness is predominantly on the right hand side (left is catching up).

        We can't put everything down to mnd but I think we do.

        So glad your hospice visit went well x
