Get Out of Jail

Head down position is over at last. I'm still blind in that eye but that's to be expected as my vision is to return slowly.

I did have one little cavieat though. Yesterday around noon I thought I had a sinus headache but none of my sinus meds could touch it and the lortab didn't help either. The pain got worse and worse and even though it felt like a sinus headache, it was right behind my eye. I called my doctor and was told to come in immediately. 

The pressure behind my eye is supposed to be under 18 but was 58! Your eye has fluid behind it thar constantly replaces itself. The surgery had thrown things off and the new fluid was running in but the old fluid wasn't leaving. My eye felt like a balloon ready to burst. The doctor couldn't find the blockage so he had to remove the fluid with a hyperemic needle. Honestly, this didn't hurt one bit. He numbed my eye real good before he started. I wish my dentist could take some numbing lessons from him. Anyway, I immediatrly got relief and the pain was gone. He gave me s script for some eye drops  to keep this from happening again.

I was told I could now sleep on my face OR my left side. What a relief. My left arm is sore this morning but now I'm sitting upright and my back and neck are feeling fine
