Saturday 22 December
I am not sure if I have just figured out how to make use of the muscles that do work, or if there has been some improvement. But I seem able to close my eye a little better. I still do not blink when not concentrating, but with thought and effort I can get the eyelid to close much faster. It still does not fully close, only 95% closed, but it gets to that point a little quicker. The mouth and eyebrows still remain paralysed. I had a really good day today and was in a good mood throughout, and for the first time in a while I felt that my right eye could see things like normal, but only for brief periods. I covered my right, and then swapped and covered my left, and it didn't seem more blurry in either eye. I also had a good day in terms of eye irritation. It was less red and less runny than it has been. I met some friends in the evening and went to see a film, no real problems. I took 2 x B complex vitamins and 1 x multi vitamin. I used Lacri Lube and taped my eye shut to sleep. I keep considering doing exercise, maybe going for a run. It does not feel nice to just sit around all day, but I usually come to the conclusion that rest is best.
