Jeeez... can I get a break?!

Finally saw the initial Opthamologist today....that dx my Retinopathy.
The doc that saw me today is a great Optha. He has been the only to see my Retinopathy. He congratulated on the big improvement he saw in my eyes. He cleared my worry about the blurriness WAS NOT the MS!!! Of course, I did not mention the MS till he mentioned the Macular swelling, just to be sure they wouldnt jip me and just blame the MS. As they are able to see the damage MS can cause in the eyes.

He found exactly what I expected, the Macualr swelling, once again. He sent for my July appt to be pushed up so I can get more Kenelog shots. I know these work, but Im afraid of having so many done. He found cataracts on both eyes and I know all these procedures I have had, have these side effects. :boxing:.

What else could it be next, the Bird Flu??? lol

Shucks Mars. I agree that you have surely been through enough for
quite some time. I am glad that it wasn't the MS causing the blurriness
and glad also that your Doc saw a big improvement.
Sorry, to hear of the cataracts. But at least they can be
removed. I had posted awhile ago that I freaked about 5 minutes from
having mine removed last September. So I saw him on April 11th and
this time he's putting me out(thank God). Ha, he of course had to mention
that there is always a slight chance that I wouldn't wake up. That is normal
with a general anestetic(sp). Been through the general twice before, made
it back both times. I feel certain the devil doesn't want me yet. Still have
more damage to do up here. :D Best to you always. :flowers:

Bird Flu? Did you have the mumps shot? I know I heard this one wrong. I heard
that they had their first case of the black plague(bubonic plague?)in the U.S. What
the H*ll? That's not near funny. :( I sure hope I heard that wrong.

Cinnabon...

Grrr... I don't know why this all is happening to you right now :mad:. It's like they say, "when it rains, it pours" :rolleyes:.

That's not much help to you, I know, but I think that once you get past this little obstacle, things will start taking a turn for the better. I agree with Cindy...you are bound for some good things- so try and hang in there :top:.

In the meantime, though I know we can't do that much to help, I'm going to say it again... We're here for you. Don't feel like you can't vent here :argh:... Sometimes that's the best medicine :wink:. Also, know that you can PM anytime. You know we love you :love: and want to support you, so don't forget that.

Keep fighting :boxing:

No no kicky... No bird Flu.. yet.. LOL
I was only kidding. Its just so much.. but like I have said before, If I didnt have all the support I CONSTANTLY get from this family, I would be really down.
THANK YOU ALL!!!

Dangit Cin! this shouldn't be happening to such a good person. GRRRRRR. You are my rock here in this department and will pray for your eyes to be better then ever. I really have faith that you will be ok in this.

Wow! That is some action. Speedy.

I am sorry about the latest news. Have you checked your horoscope recently? Hopefully the stars will bring some brighter news soon.

I am hoping and praying that the latest round of treatments for your eyes helps you to recover your vision quickly and you get back on the beach soon.
