I have some fog under righty's brand new cataract lens!
Thus the blurriness, now added into swelling of the healing, so I was not seeing/imagining things after all!
Pun meant wholeheartedly, with this exacerbation of my Multiple Sclerosis, oh what fun!
That will be validated tomorrow if this new neuro guy accepts an exam, not a MRI, but he might need both for him to be sure...oh joy, more time a wasting for action! How I hate that!
PS I will need to have the right eye lasered once the swelling goes down in a month if it doesn't rectify itself like lefty did with that fog underneath its lens! What surprised me the most was that this doc said this was a common problem with cataract surgery and has to be done quite often, while the other docs did not tell me that at all and also wanted to charge me an additional $500 to fix the problem after they charged me $2000 for the surgery itself, back in January 2010, without any insurance for my eyes then! I am just saying if it is that common a problem it should have been included, hmm? I do believe that now the cost is all inclusive.
Meanwhile for me to see distance they have physically removed my right lens from my eyeglasses that I now have been told to wear for seeing the TV and Hubby's back seat driving, my idea/thought processes, ha, etc. i.e. for all distance wise... lefty again is having to take charge for it is my left eye that has the all encompassing view of my world unencumbered! Ta Da!
Frustrating to think that after all my eyes have been through this happens.
But as the doctor says and I concur, I can see out of righty and that is incredible, even though my right eye now is blurry and at times causes me to have double vision!
Hubby and I did tackle the going out to lunch thingy.
I used my scooter, again to go into the eye docs, last time I did the walker, and so when we went over to Chili's I used my walker since the distance was shorter and I thought that I should try...and asked to sit at a table very close to the entrance. The server was accommodating. Although, when we began to leave I could not walk with the walker and Hubby had to go get my scooter out of the car, thankfully it was there. Got home and planted myself in the recliner, Hubby even brought me my Copaxone shot, ironically it and the 300 MG. Gabapentin dose that although it had been taken with us but both were administered later than usual, who knows if that added to the cause of my MS problems... for today, but this all started last Wednesday, more than the 24 hour criteria being met for an exacerbation, just my initial misinterpretation for being my herniation, but it is on both sides and arms and hands too and that is where MS flairs take over from disc issues, I do believe... Between my infections and cold and then surgery I do have significant triggers according to what is stated for that thing...
On the brighter side...
Lunch was delish, but enormous again and so we, Hubby and I took half of each of them all home for dinner tonight, his flat-bread with chicken, and mine my shrimp tacos, both very recommendable.
Speaking of which my dinner is calling and so on that note, allow me to be the very first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you all kindly to count your blessings and we will too!
And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!
