Horner's Syndrome
Posted: Fri Dec 17, 2004 9:42 pm
Hi everyone and happy holidays! I wanted to ask if anyone who has been diagnosed with BPI also have Horner's Syndrome?
As for me, after my accident my left side was diagnosed as a BPI. I also noticed that my left eye was different. The eyelid was and is droopy. Two and a half months afterwards, my doctor said that I might have horner's syndrome. Some symptoms that I have is the droopiness of the eyelid and my pupil cannot dilate. Although my vision is normal, my left eye feels weighed down. At my appointment with Dr. Terzis, she addressed this problem but I don't think she can do anything for it. Her specialist said that my eye will return to normal on its own but it will take three years.
I was just wondering if anyone else has this condition and is there any cure for it?
Thanks a bunches!!
