Drooping eyelids can be a visible sign of hypothyroid / low ATP (case report shows reversal)

From this detailed thyroid blog
https://thyroidpatients.ca/2021/05/02/23-years-undiagnosed-central-hypo-case/Seems to me eyelids are especially vulnerable to low atp states over time because the eyelids are in such continual high rates of use .
its also interesting how people with twitches commonly mention this in eyelids. as ray mentioned muscles fail to stay in a fully rested state without enough atp , a sign twitching is a low atp state -
@cs3000 I can bear witness to this.
When I was suffering from a year long condition that started with bronchitis, my eyelids were drooping. The lack of the usual amount of oxygen easily translates into low energy. And my eyelids were a good tell.
