2 days of doctors...
So I woke up Monday with a swollen eye. I know, fabulous. Went about my day just thinking that it was nothing, took some benadryl and all is good. Tuesday, happened again, a little worse, so I went to the store and got some visine and more benadryl. It got better through out the day. Wednesday-very red eye and swollen underneath big time. My dr. office had closed at noon and of course I waited to call afternoon. So I went to the local med center. He said eye infection probably sinus related hence the swollen under eye by sinus cavity. Z pack and some drops. Ok- Wednesday night- 2 drops in eye once every hour. Feeling better. Thursday morning- very swollen eye again. The drop schedule today is 2 drops 4 times a day. Do my morning drops, go to work for a bit. Do my afternoon drops- big swollen eye with hives underneath and candy apple(my new favorite color) red eyeball. Soreness, itchiness and pressure in my cheek bone. So I head to my family dr. which is open today and I could get an appt within the hour. She says- I either was bit by something or something I was allergic to got in my eye. No sinus infection, no eye infection. AND....I was allergic to the drops the first Dr. gave me. Great! So I dumped the z-pack and the drops and now I am on a steroid for the inflammation and some wierd ointment that I.squeeze.into.MY EYE. EWWWWWWW
But I feel better, no more redness and it is only a little bit swollen underneath. And since posts are boring without pictures, I give you(no, not my swollen eye), a pic of my sweet girlie.
I know- she has food in her mouth, but I got her to look at me and smile so it was way worth it and I was practicing in AV mode so it's all ok.
