I can't believe it....

I'm still wearing my glasses and using the antibacterial eye drops. Both eyes are not yet WHITE like they should be, and are still a bit veiny. Yesterday my left eye was bad... very very bloodshot from the inner corner right to the iris. I used the drops last night and it's much better today but still not good. I really don't know what's going on. I wasn't using the eye drops a lot over the weekend and it started getting bad again, so I am going to try to use them 3 or 4 times a day now. Hopefully this will be resolved before Tuesday when we leave for our holidays. We will be driving 9 hours or more on some days and I would really like to be able to wear sunglasses!

My eyes aren't watery at all though, and there should be discharge with pink eye. My eyes are just really sore most of the time. Of course, my glasses are an old prescription, and I'm sitting in front of a computer for 13 hours a day most days now because I'm so stressed out and working so much overtime. I'm not getting much sleep either, especially the nights when I don't get home until 10 pm and still need to make a meal and eat before bed!

I just think I need a break all around, and a chance to be able to just rest my eyes and hopefully they will get better. I also hurt my jaw last night and it's so painful to chew! And the scab on my foot still isn't healed so I'm walking funny. I'm just falling apart all over the place lol!

Gosh Lindsay! I hope you are feeling better - all over - soon!

I'm really concerned about your eyes especially since you work so much with a computer. You could be right that they just need a rest but I wouldn't think that not resting them would cause an infection. Maybe you need to call in and talk to a nurse at the doctor's office and see if there's anything else that they can do.

It's still not clearing up and I leave on vacation tomorrow night I guess I'll just have to wear my glasses. By the end of the day my eyes hurt so bad it causes headaches that just won't go away. But I use antibiotic drops before bed and when I wake up they feel fine, although they are still red. Since yesterday they have both had yellow goopy stuff which is a sign of bacterial pink eye. I've been trying to use the eye drops 4 times a day, but of course have days like today where I forgot them at home.

I'm sorry your eyes aren't better for vacation. There should be a doctor somewhere that can get to the bottom of this...when you get back, you gotta find the answer! Have fun, and don't forget to take your drops!

I hope that you're able to get rid of it soon.
