It's been a while...

since I've posted here. I've actually been staying off the computer a lot lately because of some issues with my eyes. I've been having headache issues for months and months...but they have really gotten worse the last few months. Naturally, I thought my eye glass prescription needed updated, so I went to the eye doctor. I went in expecting a new prescription and came out a wreck.

I came home with a prescription for another MRI. Yeah, I just love those. NOT!!! I also got a new prescription for glasses, but the MRI prescription has me freaked out. The doctor told me that I have swelling in my optic nerve, and combined with the headaches and flashes of light I've been experiencing, I need to get it checked out. I don't want to get it checked out because one of the causes for optic nerve swelling is something I don't want to talk about. I can deal with it if it's Glaucoma or if it's a side effect of the tumor on my spine. But if I have MS, I don't want to know.

So for now, I'm in space just wondering how I can get my headaches to go away. I cannot have an MRI of my head - I just can't handle it. I can't handle the thought of my quarterly MRIs of my spine...and I have anxiety attacks when I think of being in there that much longer for a head MRI. For now, I'll deal with the pain and try to cope while I work out my anxiety.

And for now, I have to keep limiting my screen time...it makes my eyes go bonkers!
