Hi guys,
Thank you for all your help,sorry im not a massive talker. Struggling a lot at the moment.
Just wanted to ask if anyone has had/has horner syndrome and does this mean the carotid artery is involved or sympathetic pathway?
There was a research paper published which mentions hypoglossal nerve affected by ES and Horners Syndrome:
Atypical presentation of Eagle syndrome with hypoglossal nerve palsy and Horner syndrome - Bensoussan - 2014 - Head & Neck - Wiley Online Library
And there are a few discussions about ES & Horners Syndrome, if you’re able have a read, not sure how helpful they’ll be because there aren’t always answers, but you’re not alone & it does seem as if it could be caused by carotid sheath irritation/ compression by the styloids:
Eye Symptoms - Symptoms and Treatments - Living with Eagle
Buzz. My case history, findings and radiology images - General - Living with Eagle
Horner Syndrome? Eagle Syndrome? - General - Living with Eagle
I’m sorry that you’re struggling, have you been able to get a referral to one of the UK doctors?
