Today I learned that when you get your eyese dilated you cant see for hours after! I went to see the eye specialist today so he could make sure the Sarcoidosis isnt in my eyes. He checks my eyes and everything looks good but he tells me he wants to dilate my eyes so he can really make sure. Ok fine. No big deal. HA! Everything was fine till I stepped out into the burning sunlight! So now my eyes are burning and tearing and I can barely see the parking lot. I get in the car, find 2 pairs of sunglasses to put on over my regular glasses. Still not helping. I have both sun shades down. So I figure ok its not far to the house. OMG what a nightmare! We make it home and I figure it will just take a bit to go back to normal and then I can get out to finish my errands. We'll it took almost 5 hours for my eye sight to return!!!!!!
So anyway that was my last doctor appointment for now. I have to watch for any eye issues...redness, infection etc and see a doctor right away if that happens. Basically now I am just at a point of monitoring the disease. Going about my business and notifying the doctor id there are any changes or new symptoms.
Yesterday I went to visit my local scrap store. They had been closed for a while due to terrible flooding so they had their grand re-opening this week. Got some very cool new papers and stuff. I hae been collecting old family photo's so I got some scrap stuff to match them.
Here is one of the pictures. This is my great grandmother holding my grandma on my Dad's side of the family. I love these pictures! I'm working on a family history scrapbook so Im excited to have this new pic to add.
The nasty, gross humidity seems to have moved along for a bit so hopefully we can get a lot done outside this weekend. Just not as much fun gardening when its 500 degrees outside.
