Droopy eyelid can be a GCA symptom

[Janstr]

An update on my post a couple of days ago, as I have just returned from seeing my GP. She has confirmed that my sudden onset droopy eyelid is not a TIA, stroke or Bells Palsy. She said it can be part of GCA, but usually with increased CRP & ESA.

She has increased by pred from 9.5 to 15 & is ringing me tomorrow to check progress. I have to go back to her on Monday if there is no improvement.

Than you everyone who responded to my previous post.

Glad you got it checked.

Yes I am too. Thanks for advice re this & also for advising me not to taper. So much for my idea of going to 9!
