CLARE
I WAS FINALLY DIAGNOSED WITH BLEPHAROSPASM-MEIGE TWO YEARS AGO. I RECEIVE BOTOX INJECTIONS EVERY THREE MONTHS. THEY HELP BUT I STILL HAVE PRO LEMS. I TAKE KLONIPIN FOR THE MEIGE . MY JAWS WERE CLENCHING SO HARD I WAS AFRAID I WAS GOING TO BREAK MY TEETH. I COULD HARDLY EAT AND LOST A LOT OF WEIGHT BEFORE THE DOCTORS FINALLY TRIED ME ON KLONIPIN. IT HAS BEEN THE ONLY DRUG THAT I HAVE HAD A NOTICABLE RESPONSE TO. THE CLENCHING HAS DRAMATICALLY BEEN REDUCED. I AREHP TROUGH THE BUREAU OF SERVICES FOR THE VISUALLY IMPARED. THEY PAID FOR EYE EXAMINATION, AND SPECTRA SHIELD GLASSES FOR MY EXTREME LIGHT SENSITIVITY. THEY ALSO PAID FOR NEW TINTED PRESCREPTION GLASSES. I AM NOT COMPLETELY WELL YET BUT I AM A LOT BETTER THAN I WAS. FOR A YEAR WHENEVER SOMEONE ASKED ME WHAT I WANTED I WOULD TELL THEM ALL I WANTED WAS TO FEEL BETTER. NOW I FINALLY DO. PLEASE E-MAIL WHEN YOU CAN. I DO NOT HAVE MANY FRIENDS BECAUSE FOR FOUR YEARS I STAYED PRETTY SECLUDED BECAUSE I WAS SO SELF CONCIOUS OF MY INVOLENTARY MOVEMENTS.
