He looked at my eye, and looked some more. Then called in another cornea specialist Dr. Tran and he looked and looked some more.
They talked back and forth and decided on another stronger course of Valtrex the antiviral, increasing the steroid to 6 times a day, and discontinuing one of the other drops.
Dr. Pearce, the previous specialist, had decreased the steroid because of the increased pressure in my eye. But that is back to normal for the last three months.
I have an appointment with Dr. Tran on Friday. He will check on the changes and hopefully see an improvement!
FIVE months. Yep, five months I've been dealing with this.
Wish me luck! And if you need me, I will be putting drops in my eye all the time now!
I truly wish you the very best of luck. I took the maximum dosage of
ReplyDeleteValtrex for about three years and it wore my system down so I hope your problems clear up pronto.
Holy heck!!! What next!!!
ReplyDeleteOMG! what a time you are having. I think you read my blog and saw what happened to Terry when he went to have a cataract removed. Well since they didn't do it he still can't see very well out of his left eye. Now he has a sty on the right eye lid. Enough is enough, and for you too!

Well, let's hope the drops finally clear up your eye. I will be interested to read if Dr. Tran sees an improvement. Since he is only giving the drops four days before he wants to see you again tells me he is expecting an improvement.
