Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
It seems from the history that you are having drooping of the eye lids with elevated ESR.
This indicates inflammatory disease involving the third cranial nerve which is causing drooping of eyelids called ad ptosis.
Hence this requires examination by a neurologist or neurophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
