My eyes are just in almost a constant state of agony.... among other things, but this is still so bad that it is distracting me from a lot of the other stuff. It's not worth it. Honestly, I would rather still be noticing the other things more, and have my eyes ease up. My neck, hips knees & heels are still strong enough that I can't forget them, but the eyes have definitely made the neuopathy a bit less noticeable lately. It's still there, the eyes just hurt more right now... goodness it's intense!

Magalie, thanks for the tip.... my eyes aren't red, but they do feel dry sometimes. I blink a LOT. It hurts to keep my eyes open for long, but then it also hurts to keep them closed for long, too, so it's a constant battle with fluctuating them between being open & closed.

(((HUGS)))

I'm F.I.N.E.
Frustrated, Irritated, Nonfunctional & Everything hurts!!

Sarcasm: Embrace it!

A good resource that has given me alot of relief from the pain is trigger point massage therapy - some done at home, some with a massage therapist. An EXCELLENT book is The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook - have gone through on book already, the pages were falling out. They now have a second edition. Some primary muscles responsible for eye pain are the subocciptals and you'll probably want a massage therapist to work these since the skin is pretty thin in this area. It has always helped me.

I have had occular migraines for 10 yrs, I get a tunnel vision where I cant see for about 20 min and then the headache comes on.

one thing that bothers me most is the vision disturbance at times - like i am looking into the horizon......everything appears like a heat wave~!

Does anyone else experience this??

google lyme and the eyes..they love to hide out there.

scary stuff...
