::giggles:: Ah, I can tell you're new to my corner of LJ. For months, all that happened was that Pirate Bob was hijacking just about every single post.
The short and NOT sweet of it is that I was diagnosed with glaucoma in my blind eye 18 months ago. I was prescribed the ONLY glaucoma eyedrop on the planet.
Guess who developped a huge case of hives that would spring up SECONDS after taking the eyedrops. So the surgeon had no option but to operate. However, because of my previous operations to re-attach my retina (that ultimately failed), she couldn't do a traditional shunt. The only option was to use a very powerful laser to create drainage. But she said there was a risk of having pain in the eye for the rest of my life. I was already in pain, so I took that risk. And lost. So, basically, every single (fucking) day, there's pain in the eye or - even better - spreading to aggravate other pain receptors/nerve endings nearby.
Wah. I need Rodney's genius to figure out some Pegasus-style voodoo to take my stupid pain away.
