woke up hungry as a spring bear...

Had a whole can of tuna w mayo on GF crackers which gave me strength to google the eyedrops Zymaxid, I'm using. Sideeffects include increased sensitivity to light, pain &/or discomfort around the eye and headache, so I guess that explains my reaction- hope I don't have to take it any longer after today. If doctor tells me I need to continue with

Did the doctor call you back?

Just saw on Amazon that they have gluten-free products up to 30% off. If you're interested, here's the url:

The on call doctor woke me up, returning my call about 2 1/2 hours later (not the doctor I'd seen on Sat). She was sure the drops couldn't possibly be the cause, and I should just take some Tylenol.

I get the feeling she never admits things can have side-effects, but at any rate, the headache and pain had eased a lot after I slept, so it's getting better. One more drop now and then I'm off to try to sleep some more. Have slept as much as a cat today. :^)

Being hungry is always a good sign!
Yes, sometimes the side-effects are worse than the problem itself.
I did send some vibes to your guy there but 99% of them go your way!

Thank you! I'm pretty good- a bit fuzzy, but nearly back to normal (it's not as if I had perfect vision to start).

I've been to the doctor and everything looks well on the way to healing, have a new medical routine to follow and in a month go back for a checkup. Maybe I'll let him try again to get me contact lenses- last time was back in... 2006? They might be able to do what I need now- I mainly want to be able to see to do hand-work & computer stuff without SQUINTING. :^)
