Horners syndrome+hyperhidrosis

by jjewel, Feb 23, 2008 06:47AM
I found in my medical notes that I have mild right Horners Syndrome which I have had from birth as well as a red spot on retina.Although the signs i.e Different coloured eyes small right pupil with droopy eyelid(my whole right side of my face shows sign of palsy in fact) the one fact that doesnt match is that I sweat profusely over the right eye not the left as is usual. My question is have I got Horners to right side or could this be something else

If its Horner's the ptosis, small pupil and difficulty with sweating and lighter colored eye iris should all be on the same side of the face.
