Health Update
Todays post should have been a Dr Strange review, but instead i'm going to be updating you on my current situation! Whilst i'm not as ill as I was when I had to stop writing the Japan Trip posts, i'm not quite myself right now.
I feel fine, other than the occasional light headache, but my eyes aren't working properly.
When I first got ill they gave me steroids and my double vision went away, but just before I was due back to go to work on Monday, my eyes started to get bad again. I'm seeing double on and off, but only specific objects rather than everything like before - including characters on tv shows but nothing else on the screen or the screen itself, and mostly its only happening to things in the distance rather than things that are near me (I watched cars drive away and once they hit a certain point in the road, they went double).
It's a pretty confusing, somewhat scary situation, in short, I might have MS.
I'm just devastated that this happened after I got better, just before I was about to go back to work!
My next Orthopic and Neurology appointments aren't until next week, so after a Drs appointment on Monday i'm now just waiting for my eyes to get better. My neurologist said I couldn't have any more steroids and that it just has to settle on it's own. It's slowly getting worse, but I guess it has to get worse before it can get better, right?
I've ended up off work, again, but i'm hoping to be better by the time I have my appointments at the end of next week and then can hopefully get back to work earlier!
And on the plus side, the cinema have let us move our booking to another date.
