I have to go to the Hospital tomorrow because I have been referred by my doctor, I suffer with pressure behind the eyes, and dry eyes.
I hate the thought of them messing with my eyes, especially at the moment because I have got yet another bad kidney infection, but our eyes are important so it needs to be done,
Take no notice of me just came on to rant abit :roll: :roll: well I hope you are all not in to much pain with this cold weather.
I hate it when it gets to cold, It's a good job I wasn't born an Eskimo because I would never survive :lol:
Love Sue x

    Good luck for today queenfan, eyes are important - without them you wouldn't be able to read our wonderful words of wisdom! :D I know it will be uncomfortable but hopefully only briefly, you do need to ensure that your eyes can be helped and to do that 'they' have to look at them. Let us know how you get on, if you can. DD

    Hi Sue,
    I hope your appointment went well and it was not too distressing for you. My mum has been going to the eye hospital for a while now and I must say that they have been very kind and attentive to her, so I hope you have had a similar experience.

    Well we arrived at the Hospital for 8:40 & didn't leave until 11:35 I think i must have had every test going :roll: still he was very thorough, But having to sit there for all that time I was in agony all over, plus needing to get to the loo, John said my pupils were like saucers :lol: I have only been able to see properly for the last couple of hours.
    having said all that I am happy to say the glaucoma is OK, so just came away with drops & ointment to use, I'm Glad everything is OK.
    Thank you all for thinking about me :wink:
    Love Sue xx

    Hi Every one
    I had a really good nights sleep last night, golly not slept like that for a long long time (lazy toad me) :oops:
    Julie it doesn't matter you were not with me, I wouldn't have wanted you to have sat there for hours on end, on those awful chairs which make you feel worse than when you arrive at Hospital :lol: I've just received my appointment to see back surgeon which is the 11th Jan I was so glad to see the letter, but I was worried in case it was going to be Christmas time,because I we had arranged to send Christmas with my sister in Spain, I've just got to be careful that it doesn't go all together, which is worrying me when I go over there,I haven't said that to my family thou, My Sister has hired a mobile scooter for when I am over there :oops: she's told my Daughter she's going to put a big horn on the front & get me a crash helmet the little b****r :lol: Thank you all for your support Love & (((()) to you all x

    It's a good thing that your appointment is after Christmas, but take it easy over the festive season: don't drink too much, falling over won't help matters, don't have too many punch-ups with the rellies and keep a score of all that you hit/squash/kill/demolish whilst on the scooter! DD
