Just wanted a whinging session really but no one to whinge to at home - DD too young to care really! I have an eye ulcer and it is so painful and my vision is so bad I can't do anything.
I woke with an itchy eye on Sunday and put it down to hayfever. It got worse and worse during the day, and by evening it was agony. It was like a very heavy pressure pushing down on the right eye, itchy and sore, and weeping constantly. Painkillers didn't touch it and I was up all night. I guessed I had an infection and made an appointment Monday morning to see the doctor. Doctor could see someting in my eye but couldn't remove it as my eye was so swollen. So, he packed me off to eye casulty. Luckily MIL was available to take me and watch DD as there is no way I can drive. Spent all afternoon at casulty having tests and numerous eye scrapes - ouch, ouch, ouch Turns out I have an ulcer on my cornea, probably caused my contact lenses. So I now have eye drops to apply hourly during the day for the next seven days. I go back to eye casulty tomorrow to get the results and see if it is starting to heal. I can't wear my lenses for the next month. My vision is getting a bit better this afternoon but I have had to switch my computer to big text, etc. - on the visual impairment settings - so that I can use it!
What's really bugging me is that I got Harry Potter on Saturday, read 3 chapters that night but haven't been able to read it since. It's driving me mad! And, I can't drive (so can't work either) this week, so we are stuck in the house too.
That's it anyway - no real message, just an outlet for my frustration and pain !
