Heavy eyes

[Mandypandy1969]

Does anyone suffer with really heavy eyes?

[Puska]

Have you had thyroid levels checked too?

[Mandypandy1969 in reply to Puska]

no.

[Puska in reply to Mandypandy1969]

Maybe ask for that. Low levels caused eyelid issues for me at a young age.

Hi. Yes I'm suffering with really heavy eyes, especially on waking and particularly on days when I have a facial rash. Feels dreadful and I usually have a headache too. It's not every day which is strange. As Pushka suggested to you, I have had a thyroid check and it was fine. I haven't any solution for you Mandypandy but I'm now starting to think it's yet another problem of lupus as I've never had it before. I'm still waiting for a proper diagnosis, started feeling ill in March. Please let me know if you find anything that helps!

since I had my steroid injection at my last appointment last Wednesday it seems to have gone. my mood has lifted and I feel like doing a little more even though I have the Chinese in my muscles.

That sounds positive. Glad to hear you're feeling better. Hoping I will be offered some treatment asap.

I hope you do too. I don't suffer with rashes which is good. I think. x
