Hey all:

Thanks for the well wishes. It isn't just the pink eye... I have another infection, from the surgery, seemingly small... that won't go away.

The pink eye... is being regarded right now as viral, since I don't have the goop, just constant eye watering. Both eyes. No other lymph node/cold signs. No offense, but I am way beyond all the normal stuff you do with pink eye... haven't worn make up in some time. Hairdog, I actually have an eyescrub that is much like baby shampoo.

It is intensely frustrating... and you know... everyone runs out of patience, okay... but it's this other thing, combined with the pink eye, that is making me a little nervous.

Why am I having such a difficult time passing infection? And that is what they are getting ready to start exploring, if this last thing doesn't work.

I went a little skitzy, sorry. I don't get sick. Haven't had to take an anti-biotic in years, for any reason at all. I should know better than to whazz out... but, I did the same thing when they told me they were culturing my eyes for a whole host of STDs. (You're testing me for WHAT?! In my EYES?!) All tests came back negative. They sent me to the gyno to have him do the same tests as well, just to make sure. (Can't even begin to tell you how fun that was...)

I was on antibiotics after the surgery and my eyes cleared up for one day. Then, boom... it's back... and my doctor(s) are left scratching their heads.

So you know, I'm just walking around looking like I'm high all the time, with no benefits whatsoever of actually BEING high...

Fran: I'm using homeopathic eye drops. I have not heard of the Vitamin A thing... I will do that immediately. Thanks.

I'll keep you posted, all.
