Well the eye doc called me today and said my eye muscles are swollen and enlarged. That, that part isnt usually a big deal. But what is, is the swelling of my eyelids. So, he said he hopes it doesn't happen again... But if it does to call his office and tell them I need to see the Eye socket specialist. To look at it while its happening. Well, I can tell you right now its gonna happen again and real soon because I always get pains in my eyeballs and burning, with a funky headache.It's started again and past history is that within a few days my the lids will be swollen and almost purple. Tomorrow we have to take our daughter a few hours away for a checkup. I hope it doesnt start then..... IT IS GRAVES!!!! Whichs caused by your thyroid. I started out hypo for several years, now apparently I am hyper! UGH!!!!
