Hey all I dont usually come on here talking about me because I know there are so many of you that have horrific pain just as bad or worse than what I have on a everyday bases..

But this is new and this is brutal..It started from an allergic reaction to meds...First I had hives then my eyes got blister under the eye lids..Woke up that morning with them and right eye was the worse..Went to eye specialist he looked and burst the blisters said he thought it to be apart of the reaction..Man did it ever hurt gave me meds for infection said it should clear up..Left eye did pretty well. I woke up with right eye with blisters so big it wouldnt shut..Then came the call he needed me back in the office asap..I knew then it was bad..They told me on the phone it cultured out MRSA..

Friday morning had to go in and could not shut the eye it had ulcers by this time all inside the lid..Pain was horrible. He tried to look at it but I couldnt stand him to touch it..Ended up in surgery center being given versade becasue they will not put me completely under because of lungs..And they found an abcess back behind an ulcer and open it and also cleaned out all the ulcers..He packed under the eye lid with medicated packing strips has to be done 3 times a day until Tuesday when I go back and then we will see..I knew it would be painful had pain for years..But this is sheer torment..Everytime I get it about settled down they have to redo it all over again..I dont know what the out come will be..I just know something somewhere has to stop this pain I cant take much more..and will it kill the MRSA have no clue..In two years or plus they have never gotten it killed in my lungs or on my skin or even kidneys..So what will become of this situation I have no clue only God knows but I wanted to share it with all of you who have been so very good to me and so very supportive..Thanks for listen and Caring..Know I care about each and everyone of you also.

Hugs and Blessings,
Viv

Viv,

I'm so sorry you are going through this. I hope your doctor appointment tomorrow will go well. Please keep us updated and let us know how things go afterward.

Love and hugs to you,

Just because it's impossible doesn't mean it can't happen.

I'm not a doc, so anything I say is my opinion only. Nothing I say is meant as offense, I offer what I can as help. I believe in educating myself on all my medical issues and being my own advocate, for no one else with do that on my behalf. I recommend we all do the same!

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Perhaps I truly am insane for expecting these docs to listen to me when I say the same things repeatedly to no avail? LOL. I am tired of seeking out new docs and getting the same result time and again...Forgive me if I seem bitter some days.

Something has changed within me/Something is not the same/I'm through with playing by/The rules of someone else's game/Too late for second-guessing/Too late to go back to sleep/It's time to trust my instincts/Close my eyes and leap...I'm through accepting limits/Cuz someone says they're so/Some things I can not change/But till I try I'll never know/Too long I've been afraid of/Losing love I guess I lost/Well if that's love/It comes at much too high a cost/I'd sooner buy Defying Gravity/Kiss me good-bye I'm Defying Gravity/I think I'll try Defying Gravity/And you won't bring me down...
