Thanks to Bobbi and gatorgirly for your responses. I continue to be amazed at how varied TED symptoms are person-to-person. I had proptosis years ago when first diagnosed with Graves’, but the methimazole took care of that so I no longer had “the look”….But the pressure, it’s really effecting how I blink and how I move my right eye around.
I can relate to gatorgirly when you talk about squinting to match up your eyes. Although you can no longer “see” the proptosis to look at me, the pressure is so strong that I feel like I have to squint to match my eyes up so they “feel” even to me. I know that sounds strange, believe me, it’s even harder to explain to a doctor. Ugh.
Thanks for sharing your experiences and words of encouragement.
