Title: Glad to be back
Post by: emilyB on 07 25, 18, 10:03:06:PM
On the computer.  I had an unexpected eye procedure at a retina clinic yesterday that had me practically banned from cell texting and computer activity for a day plus.  Went through a lot of tests after being injected with dye (in a vein in my arm) , lots of pictures of my eye and tests which turned out that I needed treatment for my left eye for bleeding behind the retina.  The series of treatments  started yesterday with an injection into my frozen eyeball.  I wanted to freak out.  I came home with instructions as to what was forbidden for a couple of days, one of which was exercise.  I forgot about this a few hours later and bent down to pick up the dog bowl.  My eye teared up with lots of moisture and turned red.  I went to bed with a headache and Tylenol.  Finally this afternoon it's getting back to normal.  I had a lovely doctor who was very nice to me and said that this saves your eyesight and wasn't available 13 years ago.  I have 3 more sessions 4 to 5 weeks apart.

So glad you are back too!! Oh Emily, what an ordeal. Hope it wasn’t too painful. Yes, rest—- and agree also, Sunshine,

How fortunate to have your hubby and your Hannah by your side.

Thanks.  I think I can be normal after two days except I went out on the deck yesterday afternoon and the thermometer out there registered 118 degrees.  Holy cow!  I was going to pick the last of the blueberries.  They must be cooked already!
