another **** infection

Postby space_cadet » Wed 27 Jan 2010 5:16 pm

back from eye a&e, saw a very unhelpful bloke "iv delt with you before at the community eye clinic" - "yup you have" - "I don't know much about KC bar its name let me get someone else" - "you do that"

short reason for pins and needles in my eye, got a infection which has made small holes in my cornea therefore it is even thinner than it was *screams*

Steriod drops for the next week, but not to be used within 20mins of my regular drops.

Told not to wear lenses (the one I was using on left eye was useless as got reactiosn to them)

*head hits desk* not a happy LeaLea this afternoon

I'm so sorry to hear that.

With any luck, your operation 11th march will be the beginning of the end for these problems.

Chin up until then :wink:

That's a shame, Lea. At least you have a chance now to shrug off the infection before March.

All the best.
