I'm sorry your eyes are bad ;;

Mine aren't great because I'm very nearsighted.
I need glasses just to see the tv five feet away xD
I used to not have glasses at all and I had to memorize what color the person I was with was wearing because I couldn't see their faces. Just blurs.
I also memorized the way they walked and the sounds they made.

I also started using my eyedrops again.
They burned like hell.
That's how my eyes do when I make tears too.
I have to keep them closed and stumble around blind for a while and it hurts a lot.
BUT I felt great after the pain.

You have hugged djla90!

Have you tried it yet?

I have crazy pointy snails here. They're deadly only when stepped on.

Why did you have a TB test? When were you exposed to TB? lol.

I used to give plasma. They banned me when they found out I have EDS. Dicks. It wasn't particularly painful. It was very exhausting.



I'm glad that the sewed shut eye helps a bit at least.



I have astigmatisms in both eyes. And I'm super near sighted. My glasses are SUPER thick. lol. Like even with the special kind of glass that makes them less thick.

I need my glasses to see about 4 inches in front of my face clearly.

No, I haven't tried it yet. The bottle of eyedrops the doctor gave me is tiny so I don't want to waste a drop xD;
When I get a bigger bottle, I will try it 8]

Snails with landmines in their shells u8

I wasn't. They just did it with kids. We often got a long list of vaccines we needed for school and stuff.

That's a weird excuse to ban you. Was it because they were scared you'd get sick from it or just because they are dicks 8u
I mean, if I'm in need of plasma, I really wouldn't give a rat's ass who it came from as long as it wouldn't kill me xD

You know, I don't need my glasses for the computer or drawing or reading, so I don't always wear them.
I do wear them when I do anything else and sometimes I forget them and I just see blurs. And my family is so unhelpful.

Me: Dammit! I forgot my glasses >8u
Mom: What do you need those for?
Me: >>.....To SEE.

Me: -doesn't have glasses on-
Mom & Aunt: You need my glasses?
Me: >__>

My mom and aunt wear glasses because they're very farsighted.
Those do not help me at all, yet they always ask 8u

You should check to see what the name of the eyedrops are. You might be able to get them cheaper over the counter. Unless they're specialty ones.

lol. Poor little snails.

Oh, the TB vaccine. I thought you were talking about TB treatments. Duh, I'm so dumb.

They said since my collagen is faulty that I need all the protein in my blood to help keep producing it? Or something like that. Who knows.

About the only thing that I can do without glasses is play on my phone. Everything else requires glasses.

Maybe you should put strings around the ends and wear em like a necklace like one of those old ladies. That way you have them all the time.

I don't remember the name, but the doctor did tell me I can get it over the counter.

That's interesting 8u
I know my dad used to sell plasma so we'd get enough money.
He always told me they used giant needles, but I was also a little kid, so maybe he was exaggerating xD;

I know I want to go to pain management to get medication and injections to help with my back.
I keep being told "You need to exercise!" but I can't exercise much because I'm in constant pain >__>
Like yeah, exercise would make me lose weight and help my back not hurt as much, but I need my back to not hurt as much so I can exercise.
They gave me Naproxen too, which I don't want to take because it 1. Doesn't work that good, 2. It causes bleeding ulcers.
I thought it was one of the painkillers that didn't cause bleeding ulcers, but it is. =___=
My grandpa had ulcers and my mom got incredibly sick because she had ulcers and I used to take Motrin like it was candy, so I could get them too. And I ain't got time for that. But I'm still in constant pain. Especially with my teeth being fucked up.
So I'd take the injections and medicine.
What gets me is they tell you when they're about to stick you.
WHY do they do that? For every shot. You ain't supposed to tell me \uB</
Like "Here I'm about to jab a giant needle into you so relax 8U"

Aww ;;
I'm happy my eyes aren't that bad, but they seem to slowly get worse.
But when I saw the doctor last, he said my glasses still gave me 20/20 vision, but he tweaked them a little bit.
So that makes me a little happy.
I see things I never could before.

I rarely forget them, so I don't think I'm that bad yet xD
It surprises me when I forget them because I rarely do.
My grandpa could see better than I could far away.

Him: Ashley, what's that sign say?
Me: What sign ._.
Him: Nevermind, I can read it.
Me: -still doesn't see it- .__.

It probably says the name on the bottle the doc gave you. You should check it.

The needles are like the same size they use to draw your blood for tests. Bigger than medicine injection needles, but not huge.

You might wanna try other things to help with your back before you go to injections. Those are often like last resort. And you don't want to get labelled as drug seeking. That's not gonna help anyone.

I take a pretty high dose of naproxen everyday. Like 1000mg I think. It helps dull the pain a bit. I don't want anything too hardcore because my family has a history of drug addiction.

Lots of people want a warning before they get stuck. If you don't like it ask them not to tell you.

That's normal. People's eyes get worse as the age. That's why you almost never see old people not having glasses. If they don't need them regularly they almost certainly need them to read.

I only forgot my glasses once. It was awful. I wear them all the time now.

Now, I have dropped my glasses and was unable to find them because I can't see shit. I'm always like Velma. Lol. I can't see without my glasses!

That's how we found out Kevin needed glasses. One day he asked me what a sign said and I was like bitch you can't read that? You're the one driving!! The letters were huge.

Thankfully his eyes aren't nearly as bad as mine.

My mom got the injections. She went back, but they started burning her nerve endings? Which sounds worse than injections? .__.
But she said it worked and she didn't hurt for a while.
I'm so sick of being in pain every day xD
I was told I have a high pain tolerance, so I guess that's why normal medicine doesn't work as good?
I will take like 2500mg of Naproxen in one day, and it says not to do that but xD;

I would like to fix my back problem, though. The one where my back randomly goes out and I can't walk. It happens so randomly that I could be outside by myself and not be able to make it into the house, I could be at the store by myself, and not be able to find my Mom, I could be in the car and it go out and not be able to get out of the car \8u/
It's worse when I sleep because my body gets really stiff for some reason.

>XD
I have to look for my glasses sometimes and it's like...I need glasses to find my glasses what is this bullshit \>BU/
Oh and the wearing the glasses and looking for them too.

Moi, I don’t want to alarm you, but the drops causing pain sounds scary. Are they artificial tears? I think you should mention to your doctor that putting them in hurts.

Also, larger bottles tend to have preservatives which can be irritating.

All right you guys made me get my lazy ass up and look at the eyedrops.
It just says it's lubricating eye drops for mild-moderate dry eye.
It does say to stop using it if it hurts.
I have no time to see my eye doctor for a while, so I'll just...not use them?

xD

Uh, as an example of how serious eye problems can be, when I had my cornea scratches, I got (sometimes weekend) appointments with a cornea specialist within 48-72 hours.

Not saying you have cornea abrasions.

Does he have a number you could call to at least eliminate the possibility that it’s urgent? Sometimes insurance cards have a nurse hotline, too.

Edit: and it goes without saying, I hope nothing is wrong. <3
