I am writing this letter to all of you so I don’t have to do a different one for each of my friends. I wanted to let you all in on my experiences with my Eye Drs . The past few months. The 1st one I went to with an eye infection I thought. He gave me a salve, but said next time I’d see a Specialist as I had Squamous cell cancer in my right eye. I almost fell off the chair. For the next two weeks that is all I could think of, I was so scared what might happen. When I returned, he sounded happy and said it was gone. I said did I have cancer? He said well, would you have come back if I didn’t tell you that???? I was so dumfounded I couldn’t speak. The next visit, I had another Dr. I told them of the last one and what he did to me. This Dr was odd too. He looked in my eyes, took notes, etc., back and forth, then got up and walked out the door. I figured he went to get something as he never mentioned the issues with my eyes. I heard a nurse say are you finished with them (Ron and I)? He said Yes!! We just looked at each other. Later we found out he had been reported by another patient. Ron called and complained about my visits there.I mean I am Diabetic, have diabetic neuropathy, bleeding behind both eyes, I see dots of colored lights and floaters and dark spots blocking my vision. I deserved to know what he saw or found. So the lady said bring her in Friday at 10 am. We went and it was super busy, we waited about ½ hr or 45 min, but since they fit me in it was ok. The exam was so thorough, never had one like this before. They injected a dye in me that get to your brain in 5 seconds. Wow! I saw lights so bright looking into those machines that it hurt. It was like looking into the sun. They put all sorts of drops in my eyes to numb them. The left eye they did laser on and the right one, OUCH they put a needle in it. When I heard they were doing that it did make me quite nervous. She kept saying close your eyes after each set of drops and the last time I heard open your eyes, it was the Dr. who walked in that I couldn’t see. I opened
my eyes and he jabbed a needle in and I jerked and went to the left, lol, he patted me and laughed and said you’re ok. Man that hurt and he got me off guard. I have to go back June 1st and will get the laser on right eye and the needle and all the stuff on the other one. Not looking forward to that. Anyway, long story short, I know too late, I am having issues with my eyes, seeing clearly through my lights, floaters and dark spots Blocking out my vision. I am not on GG or FB a lot, need to rest my eyes. I get on GG more, FB is not interesting anymore to me. They are to put a dating site on it did you hear? Crazy. So, please forgive me for not visiting much or being around. I get here as often as I can. Sorry this was so long, but wanted to explain to you all what my eyes are going Through. You don’t have to read it all, but if you are reading that part now, you are done, lol. I’ll visit when I can, keep me in your prayers if you would so I don’t lose my Eye sight. My diabetes hasn’t been under control in years. My family dr. wants me to See a Neurologist as she thinks I had a mini stroke. What next? Ok, I’m done, thanks For taking time to read this. Not sure why it’s underlining things and making capital letters so often on left side??? Have a great night, hugs to you all.
