I have posted in the introduce yourself column. Post LASIK in 1999 with severe eye pain since. Recently been diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome after taking Pilocarpine (for my eyes). Now have to take a medication that has completely dried me out even more. About 3 months ago I would say I hit rock bottom -- the very bottom. I see two different ophthamologists who are kind - but see at least 4 patients per hour. They say that there is nothing they can do for me.
ANYWAY -- here is my message to you. I have had CHRONIC, unremitting eye pain with many moments of despair and depression. However, I have two beautiful sons, great husband and a great life. We cannot let this pain beat us. There is always hope on the horizon. Even 2 years ago, we didn't have the options that we have now and one day even if there is not an answer, there will be modalities to help all of us. I feel a new sense of hope with options like the BFS clinic and doctors that are willing to answer our questions on this website. Best of luck and regards from a veteran LASIK survivor.
