Hi,
I mean this message to help those who have tried everything like me and have no hope for getting better.
Despite having dry eye (and living with it), you can still live a good life, life can and will get better, you can get enjoyment from things in life. Things are 100% harder- but i get along by looking on the positive these days. It could be worse. Dry eye is horrible trust me im not belittleing the problem I understand how hard life is with DE, ive had it for 6 years for those who dont know me.
Treatments didnt help. Hot compress made my left eye worse actualy because it was too hot. Wierdly, now my left is dryer (feels) my right inflammation isnt as bad- inner eyelid inflammation has gone down. Both eyes burn less- the left is just really dry! i hate the dryness though- its the worst symptom, worse than burning for me.
I get along because i have congested throat and that also makes my eyes better. Yes i know wierd. Its not psychological- my eyelid inflammation goes down and eyes feel much better.
I put in a pair of cheap earings the other day and my earloabs immidiately went red and started buring. Now im wondering wheather i have a nickle allergy? I have a fixed wire brace behind upper teeth (which ive had since i was 17- contact lense dry eye started around this time, but hadnt been wearing contacts long- so cant say), and this could be cauing burning eye symptoms (systematically)... mmm. not sure
Anyway, getting married next week to my US fiance, wooo. Still have alot of probs, just try to live with it now.Im 6 months from completely uni- it may not get me a great job, but im doing really well and i see it as an achievement. Im scared about getting a job- but maybe that will be ok? because 5 years ag0 i never even thought i would get married! lol
What ever you can find that provides you enjoyment in life is good. Its taken a long time for me too get to this stage, but been here ever since i met him- so he was a massive part in this for me. Im not back to normal, still have anxiety, bipolar depression- not severe. But life is better. You can get there- even if treatments dont help.
