Numb again

Set backs are expected honey. I know they suck cause I have also had a massive set back but we have to just pick ourselves up again and start all over. You are a strong person my friend and I know you can make it through this.
sending you a very big gentle hug ❤️

How have you been

what have you been up to

Hi @Pollyotter

Sorry its taken me so long to get back to you. I had an appointment at the eye specialist at 9am and didnt get out of there until 11am. Managed to 'support' your posts, but not post back. Then I had to go grocery shopping, collect scripts from chemist and go to the PO. All the while driving while still blind from the drops which open up your eyes to see whats going on inside. I really should not have been driving, but no choice. Eyes still really sore and cannot go out into the light at all. Thankfully its partially cloudy today, the only reason I was able to drive home at all. Sigh .. enough about me though.

Glad to hear that you're okay. A little cloudy? Hmm .. doesnt sound ideal, but if they say thats expected after what happened .. then so be it. Now thats service ... having your shrink visit you at home. Really pleased to hear that. Sounds like there were quite a few tears around that discussion. How do you feel now that you've had the day to absorb all thats been said. And did you discuss any options or plans for future treatment or therapy?

Hi @Lee82 👋 good to see you here talking to Pollyotter. How are you doing?

Hi Mama S.

If you where in Brisbane I would have said that I will drive you around to do everything you need.Im glad your home save after the driving. Hope your eyes are ok?

Im not really sure to what I feel at the moment. The mixture of things that I took isn't really out my system yet... this is why I don't take tablets. its like the chemicals are having a party in my system first before it leaves my body. I'm happy she came over as well. It was strange having her in my room but that is what it is. She is going to get back to me on treatment options. One that we spoke about is medical induced coma for a week or 2. Its called snowballing apparently. Im happy to do that I am just worried about my income. I cant really afford not to work.

SO I am waiting to hear back from her about options

Otherwise

How are you

Awww .. arent you lovely ... and I think you mean that too @Pollyotter .. thank you 😊🌺

Eyes still sore, takes ages to adjust back to normal after all the drops and tests etc. Nothing major.

I think anything of that type takes several days to leave your system. And in the meantime ... party party party .. ouch.

Snowballing ... never heard of that, but I will look it up so I know what they are planning to do to you. It sounds very very intense with going into an induced coma for a week or two! I can understand your concern about financial issues while not working for that amount of time. Quite a dilema ... wanting to get better and willing to try whatever ... but not having the time or funds to do so. I would lend you the money if I could. I reckon you'd be good for it. Easy to say I know, because I will never be taken up on the offer. But like you offering to drive me around, I do mean it. It is something I would happily do for someone who needs it. Driving me around ... ha ha ... just had a vision of the movie Driving Miss Daisy. The old lady. I dont see myself as old yet, even though I'm 61. Goodness ... as a teenager did you consider anyone of your parents age were ancient? I know I did. Now I'm even older than that .. and dont know where all the years went. I dont feel much different to when I was 21 really. Though lots of niggling aches and pains I guess. Oh well ... enough nostalgia.

Keep well and stay safe @Pollyotter ... any work over the weekend that you are aware of? I hope you hear back from your psychiatrist soon, and that they have some options as to how you proceed with this treatment for you.

Now ... I'm going to see what I can find out about 'snowballing'.

Hahaha I love driving Miss Daisy. We'll call me Home then . Hahahah .

I wish I had time to think of my folks as old. My dad died when I was 8 and my mom when I was 22. And she was still young at heart.

I think it would be fun driving you around . I think you have awsome stories to tell and great wisdom to share.

As for work . I am having my laptop droped off and I will work remotely tomorrow. Let's see how far I get
