Update for Sqad/SMP

[Eve.]

Had my eye hospital appointment this morning and they think the blurred vision is arthritis dry eye related (I showed them the swollen eye photo too) and potentially Sjogrens.

Had an interesting field vision test experience trying to click when seeing the lights but kept seeing lights all over, very wierd!

They have given me Lacrilube eye ointment to use at night and Celluvisc/Camellose drops to use every two hours then back in clinic in 2 months to review. Hoping the former is easier to use than the over the counter gel tear things you can get.

So another fun day of freaky dilated eyes! Had a rather scary journey into work afterwards but vision pretty much getting back to normal now :) Am waiting for the rumours to start round about me turning up looking like I've been out at some rave! Probably just as well I don't look like the raving stoner type.

I was getting some strange looks sitting with my screen moved right up near my face squinting though and had a stupid moment sitting with one eye shut (as it was easier to see) on the bus to work, trying to take a tablet which pinged into my cleavage so had to try and fish it out...it's been a long day!

Still not on methotrexate yet either as my GP hasn't got the letter from rhumo yet ok'ing the screening stuff (they confirmed ok on the phone, said my kidneys aren't working 100% but not to worry and they will ask my GP to keep an eye on it) though got to wait until my chest infection is all cleared until I can go on. Hopefully soon!

Thanks for the feedback...Sjogrens is getting more into the frame each day.

It does. Does the weird lights thing fit in anyhow? I said to the guy doing the test I was seeing lots of lights all over and was trying to click on just the brighter ones I thought he was showing me (else would have been clicking like mad!) but he said to click when I saw any light so ended up clicking like mad and he then said not to double-click! He printed it out and put it in my notes but the registrar didn't mention it specifically.
