Scratchy eye, with the humidifier AND clean furnace filters.

Dang,

I'm typing this with one eye closed.

I woke up this morning with my usual gritty eyes, but the left one was bright red, just a slit, and is still scratchy 3 hours later.

Doesn't look infected, wondering if it is a corneal abrasion.

I'm seeing  my new rheumy today, then baby sitting the grands AND bringing them home for and over night.

I do NOT have time for this.

sigh

WHY is it always something?  Does that fall into the why me? category.  Yep

I wore eye  make up twice this past weekend (well my eyes have gotten so tiny they seem to be disappearing especially behind my glasses) so that is probably where I scratched my cornea or whatever.

Ack, my 'vanity goeth before an eye problem" I guess.

Carolina,

I hope your rheumy had some ideas for your poor eye. 

Are you familiar with Gilda Radnor's character on SNL years ago?  Rosanne Rosannadanna? She'd always end with "It's ALWAYS someting"   ;D  Sometimes that's the way we feel, too.  :P

Keep us posted, dear.

Good news, the scratchy eye stopped scratching on the way to the neurologist!

Whatever it was, it isn't any more.

I want more endings like that!
