I wake up feeling pretty crummy but not near as crummy as the previous day. My eyes are tired, super sticky and dry. I find out later in the day that I'm using the wrong re-wetting drops. Where the brand I was using is the same as the vial type, they didn't say preservative free so I had to switch. Only risk with that the preservative kind can leave deposits on your cornea that do go away, but can be a nuisance. So if you're looking to save money by buying the economy size drops that aren't vials, think again..buy the vials..you won't have to use them forever, only until your cornea heals.
I find that sometimes my vision is better long distance, like super crisp on the TV in my bedroom that I couldn't even see with my latest prescription. This makes me feel hopeful of what's to come. I do know that things will get blurry then better then blurry, etc. Kind of like a two steps forward, one step back. My eyes are really sensitive to the light today. I still have a hard time reading but it's a little better than the previous day.
My head still hurts (not as much) and I'm taking liquid Tylenol around the clock just to be safe. I manage to eat a little bit more and get plenty of fluids down. I don't see a visit to the ER anytime soon.
I spend the entire day in bed. Only managing to shower and welcome visitors who brought food in the evening. I am getting a little antsy. I made myself a decaff coffee and started feeling better than I had in a couple of days.
I knock myself out with Nyquil since it had the liquid Tylenol in it too. I wake up throughout the night and do my drops. Sometimes my head hurts, sometimes it doesn't. I think it's all moving to the better now.
