The doctor says it is not conjunctivitis or pink eye, but possible uveitis. As I sit here and type I have my eye closed and looking straight at the keys on the keyboard because the computer screen is too bright to look at. They are most concerned because my pupils are now unequal and the light sensitivity. I go to see a specialist today at 2:30 to figure out what we are going to do. I had it all day yesterday at work. I even had to wear sunglasses in the morning on my drive to work while it was dark out because it hurt my eye. If it starts feeling better I will try to get it done this weekend. So, please check back. Also, thank you so much for all of your kind comments on our chair because it made our day :-)
Oh My!!! Hope everything turns out ok with your eye.We don't realize how precious our eyesight is until we have problems. Glad they are taking you in so quickly.

ReplyDeleteHope your eye gets better quickly! I'll keep you in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteMy God. I am so sorry to hear this.
ReplyDeleteI think You must be like me, I get various ailments and illnesses very often. I don't know why.Ever since I was a child.
I have started taking Garlic pills, the one that is high in allicin, and probiotics.(yogurt pills)
I swear,even though I am a skeptic, I see a difference. They say 70% of our immune system lies within the intestinal tract. My daughter even got gastro, and normally I fall ill with it since I am the one taking care of her, and I did not; ! :)
Hang in there. I understand. I have run to the hospital for an eyeball several times. no joke. Listening to an ipod helps pass the time and with the pain.
My goodness, Mary, hope you get relief and total complete healing!
ReplyDeleteHi, Mary - what a terrible thing to happen to you. You've gone to the specialist by now and please let us know tomorrow what he/she said and what they can do for you.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Susan xoxo
OMG Mary, Hope everything goes well soon. Take care.

ReplyDeleteYikes..I know that eye or at least the one I had that looked like that back in end of October.. Most painful thing so I totally sympatize with you. Nime was an infection of the eye and the eye lashes caused from my sjogren's and graves disease. My vision was double and I guess the pressure behind my eyes busted all the blood vessels in the eye...
ReplyDeleteBe patient it seems to take a while to get these eye things cleared up. YOu might want to try usings a warm rice bag on your eyes and then switch to a cool rice bag..taht really helped take away the sweelingin mine and eases some of the pain..along with 5 different drops.
Good Luck and feel better soon!
Blessings

Geez!!! That's all I got! Hope you feel better!
