The Pink Eye

[kaylashay81]

So, I woke up this morning with the dreaded crusted shut eyes (sorry for sharing)... I suspected then and highly suspected when I looked in the mirror and then the nurse practitioner at the walk in clinic confirmed it.

:-(

I am not a happy camper. Both eyes (darn contact wearing me who messes with her eyes regularly).

On the upside, I'm not at work. And I think the eyedrops they have these days must be stronger than what I was given the last time I had it (late 80s / early 90s) because it's supposed to be cleared up by tomorrow.

Drops every two hours, drops every two hours....

Ugh, I hate when that happens. Lucky for me, my eyes seem to have accepted contact lenses as the way to go and aren't causing me any more trouble. for now.

Oh, it wasn't the contacts that caused the pinkeye. I just think that's why I have it in both eyes instead of just one because I mess with my eyes more than people who don't wear them do.

Pinkeye can spread really easily.

I've worn contacts for... *thinks hard about it* wow... somewhere around 11-12 years... wow...

Ewwww! *hugs from far, far away* Hope your eyeballs feel better.

The last time I had pink eye it was no so fun. :(

[kaylashay81]

The last time I had it was back in grade school I think and that's been a few years... They're all red and creepy looking today.

The RN person said it was running rampant around this area... I just wish it would have jumped over me while it was running.

Oh you poor thing. I sympathise, though I can't empathise - no idea what it's like.

*sends Tony in a box wrapped in a big red bow*

That should help.

A 'Tony in the Box'?? Ooooooo... me likes that!!

*goes to play with the 'Tony in the Box' and forget about the red itchy eyes*

A Tony wrapped only in a big red bow...

Oh the possibilities...
