Good Morning Friends,
Thought I'd do some venting here since everyone is so nice and we seem to understand each other.
Today is starting off as a bad eye day. An artic blast has hit the northeast (where I am) and I want to say this is not at all agreeing with my eyes. Additionally, I caught a cold over the weekend and it seems to have been sinus related as my nose and that whole region are in pain. I woke up this morning feeling ok, better than yesterday, and progressively got worse. I now have a headache, pain in the upper bone area of my eyes and of course dryness. The drops are not giving me any relief, nor is ibuprofen. I cannot tell if my condition has worsened because of the intense cold weather or the cold or both.
I am at work right now, with a humidifier, sipping green tea - trying to focus on something else but I cannot as the pain is quite bothersome. I often get the pain on top of my eyes, around the bone area. Is this a common symptom as well?? On a good note, I was watching a sad show yesterday and was able to cry a good amount. I noticed the tears were not so thick which leads me to imagine that its mostly MGD and not so much aqueous deficient. I'm not sure what else I can do to unplug my glands! I see a new specialist on Saturday. Cannot wait!!
Thank you for listening. Any insight or suggestions always appreciated.
