RIght is acting up

By Lisa S Wednesday, July 20, 2011

HI there,  the left eye is getting better, but now the right eye is actting out.  THe only eye that I have that I need to do everything.  Is acting out.  ANd it happens to  be the week I have to take my driving teset.  Beat me and call me Loretta.  What do you do when it happens?  You call your doctor right away.  THe good thing about this situation (if you can find one) you get diagnosed, get rewetting drops, and a goo to put in your eye at night.  Only time will tell if it works.  I havent told my mother this time, I dont want to worry her.  The last time I thought she was going to jump on thte next plane and strangle the doctors because she wanted anserwers and wanted them now.  I too.  But I was in to much pain to care.  Again, Im in pain today from a headache.  Im going to see the pain mgt doctor today for injections.  please tell me someone has gone through this.  I dont want to be alone on it.

Hey there,

 

We are here for you, you aren't alone. But because your eyes are still bothering you - are you sure you don't want to seek another opinion? I'm just concerned about the lingering symptoms....

 

Take good care,

Nancy

I must have been feeling your vibe.  We got another opion from a Ruatologist about the steriod usuage and the eye disease is called VKH syndrom. Im still looking it up to see what the cause is and why it attackted me.  I was told that with the steriods it surpresses my immune system and bones.  So now I have had a chest x ray and bone denstey test.  I have also have been put on meds for bone denstey, bacteria had a penumonia shot and a tb test.  It was a very busy day.
