BYU- EYE

BYU-I was been pretty decent to me this round. However I have been sick twice now :( The first time my ulcers acted up, this time its my eyes. I woke up this morning and I thought things looked a little blurry, but I thought nothing of it. Then I looked in the mirror and let out a good scream. My left eye was swollen shut. I couldn't open it, and I was worried half to death. I couldn't miss my first class of the day, so I went to class looking like a retard! Afterward I headed to the Health Center where I has to lay down the law and make them see me. They gave me an ointment to put on and an antibiotic. Dad called Bro. Blair and they both told me to go to a real eye doctor. So I looked up all the docs on my insurance and headed to yet another appointment.
I got there and the workers took one look at me and they felt awful for me. I see seen and told not to take the meds I had been given, that they might actually make me worse. I was also given a short eye exam, and was told it had effected my vision. He said that after it all clears up I should get most of it back, but it is horrible right now. I fell down the stairs and a hill today since I have no depth perception at the moment :(
I got home and laid on the couch with heat on it for about 5 hours. Then I decided to ask Matt and Brian for a blessing. I've put them to work this semester (which is a good thing in away lol). After they left the swelling went down some, but not much. HOWEVER my right eye started to swell as well. So now both my eyes are half swollen and it really is crap!
Hopefully things will look up soon. I'm getting headaches and what not from this all too. I'll keep you all posted as I find things out! LOVE Y'ALL!

I'm sooooo sorry you're going through this...I want a Picture! LOL Sorry, but it would be interesting to see. Did the eye doctor know what was causing it, or did he just say use heat?
