PINK EYE@!*&^%

[MedicPrincess]

I spent all day thinking I had something in my eye. So when I get to the ER today for work, one of the DR's takes one look at me and was like "Girl, you've got conjunctivitis! Go Home Now!"

Well that was 3 hours ago. I am still here. Waiting on a relief.

This is the most god awful feeling in the world. I am seeing double. The whole right side of my face hurts.

Now I know why kids are so dang whiney when they have it. I used an entire bottle of eye drops today trying to flush whatever was in there out.

UGH!!! THIS SUCKS!!!!!

...Ok...all done whining now....

Dang.... that sucks.

Don't touch anybody.... and don't rub your other eye.... you can get it in both.

Ouch Princess, will send a few thoughts and prayers your way. Keep flushing and dont touch it!

Irrigate it every two hours with lukewarm water w/ a splash of peroxide. Keep a warm compress on it (eye closed). Use a natural tear version of Visine as directed by the label, keeps the eye from drying out after flushing it. The warm compress will make it fell less itchy, and it will keep it moist (make tears). Don't touch it with your bare hand, and keep all irrigation away from the other eye.



Edit - spelling error
