I have the worst luck!!!!

I think I am destined to live a life of mishapps, accidents, and bad luck! I woke up this morning and my right eye was throbing and blood red.. It has been scrachey for about a week now. So I went to the eye doctor and I found out that I have a cornia ulser.... I guess my contact scratched my eye and bactira has gotten in it and now it is severly infected. I cannot even look at anything bright (sun, lights, computer, white paper.. etc..) without sunglassed on. And yes I am sitting here in my livingroom with sunglasses on So they dilated, numbed, and paralized my right eye. And gave me these lovely $50 eye drops that I have to use every hour. Then tomorrow I have to go have it dilated and numbed again. Then again on monday... But the messed up part is she said that if it does not get any better or worse I could loose sight in my right eye.. :( I dont think I have quite processed that yet, but it hurts like hell!

Thanks guys. I went back to the Doctor today and It has not gotten any better so far......<BR> :( So they repeated the whole dilating and numbing thing. But I go back on Monday and hopfully it will get better by then. <P>Quick question though... In case of the worst scenario, does anyone know if they will still let you have a drivers lisence if you have no sight in one eye?

Hey stay positive I really don't know about the states but in canada they will let you drive as long as the other eye is in great shape. I really don't want to answer all this cause it is going to get better. I know that it will I promise. Anyhow They other solution is they do do transplants as well I know of one person that did get a sucessfull one so there are options sweetie but don't really worry it is going to get better just give it time and take it easy.<P>Mike<P>p.s. with all this going on sweetie it is time for a vaction that can always heal all.keep us posted on how are doing. :D :D
