The doctor I saw on Tuesday was just on his hobby horse when he told me I had computer overuse symptoms. I followed his advice and prescription for four days. Less computer. Lots of breaks when I had to be on. So what happens? It gets WORSE. Last night I was reduced to sitting in the dark because any light at all was just too painful. (Just think... I couldn't even watch my tape of Buffy!)
Finally gave up today and went to get a second opinion. This one actually checked for other symptoms. Looks like I have sinusitis. (Don't ask me what that means. All I know is that it gives me headaches and screwy vision. Oh, and I'm coughing up nasty green stuff.) So I have pretty blue antibiotic pills now.
PS. I'm starting to sympathise with Kielle. I had to actually pay for the consultation today (Medicare is apparently keeping its payments static while costs go up.) And my HCC has expired, so I had to pay for the antibiotics as well. $75. Ugh.
