sonjajadePink eye is bad, m'kay? Uggggggh. There are not enough G's in the ugggggh there. So you guys know that I was in the hospital for a few days, but here's what's been going on since the last update.
That first night I was home, I had a swollen itchy eye. I woke up to go pee at 3 in the morning, and it was swollen shut and matted with goopy crap, all gross. I went to the ER again, they did another CT scan, this time on the eye, nothing came back, so the hospital sent me home with an antibiotic eye ointment abd made a same day appointment with an ophthalmologist, On my way there, my regular doctor calls me and says okay, 4 days in the hospital and another ER trip today, wtf is going on? I explain everything to them, the open blisters, the pink eye all of it. She says when you get done with the eye doc come see me right after. So I drive from one side of town to the other with my eyes dilated, and she has a heart attack when she sees my leg. She has one of the two nurses with her go down to the wound care center to see if they're still open. She is assessing the wounds and the remaining blister and thinks I was bit by a brown recluse. She tells me I should sue the hospital for sending me home before meeting with a wound care specialist. She tells me that burst blister could get staph or something and that infection would be worse than the cellulitis I'm fighting now.
She apologized for scaring the bejesus out of me, then went on to say that it looks good despite having no professional dressings on it. She couldn't see any MRSA thank heavens, Wound care was closed so I have to be back out at the doctor's office bright and early at 9am. I'm supposed to keep the leg propped up and do nothing until then. She didn't seem very concerned about the pink eye, but when I tell her how much it hurts tomorrow that could change, I don't know.
I look like Zuko:
Same eye and everything lol. Well, I was going to post some pictures but apparently my phone doesn't want to cooperate. You probably don't want to see it anyway, the biggest blister measured 10 inches in length, about 3 inches wide and 1.5 inches TALL. I named it Water Snake and when he burst, shit went everywhere. The other one is much smaller and I named him Sea Slug, after those Japanese cute bunny sea slugs they just discovered. I even used the skin marker and drew on him so he looked like one lol. He is still instact though I did make a few pin holes in him so I could drain him some. Leg seems to be doing just fine, it's this eye that's pissing me off right now. Anyone know of any pain meds that might kill this unkillable head/face ache?
