I have been feeling lousy with sinus issues and an itchy throat making me cough all the time.... so I was really worried because I was having eye surgery yesterday which I had to be awake throughout.....  It worked out ok though and I survived it without coughing or sneezing....   Talk about a freaky experience..... especially when they draw on your eyeball.  smiley: laugh  However, the bad parts were the drops for the first hour leading up to the eye ball drawing.... Every second drop hurt like hell..... and that intravenous needle they put in my hand made me yelp! smiley: eek The first one didn't work and I was ready to jump off the bed and say... blow this, forget it.  The second one I felt but it didn't really hurt.  They put the blue sheeting over your face so you cannot watch them with your other eye while the eye they are working on is numb....  You can see out of it but its mainly a kaleidoscope of bright colours.....  I did see the scalpel though.... although I never felt it cutting.  Last night my eye hurt.... every time I blinked it was like my eyelid was scraping over grit.... but today it seems ok so far....  yet to take off the eye patch..... I have to put 2 lots of antibiotic drops into the eye 4 times a day for a month.....

Anyway I am struggling to see with one bad eye at present, I have my glasses straddled over my nose to see.....  Once the eye patch comes off I cannot use my glasses anymore and they told me I will be seeing double for a few days..... so if I don't post anything.... you will understand why. 

I just read a text message I sent to my daughter after I got home from the hospital when my brain was still numb..... cracked up laughing when I read it..... I could barely see out of the eye that wasn't operated on..... and tried to write to my daughter to let her know I was OK..... smiley: laugh  She must have thought I had lost the plot.....  smiley: laugh   Every word just about was spelt wrong because I could not see the keys properly.... smiley: laugh

Last night my right ear popped and at the same time I felt a twang like the twang of a single guitar string go right down the center of my body.... through all the chakras.....  I laid there for a minute shocked thinking what the heck was that?  36426872a6be5bebfb5a751ad5353383be4a10ae_sC2b2618267b8ab6ef60ab51314395d58f68ea2bc_s
