Hi LittleMermaid,
Antibiotics etc. during 2009 and 2010 were for recurring UTIs and once bacterial vaginosis. Other than that, no other type of STI or such - Ciprofloxacin (500mg 2x/day), Pyridim (200mg 2 x/day), Flagyl (500mg 2x/day), Clindamycin (not sure of dosage), Penicillin (500mg 1x/day) Cephalexin (250mg 4x/day), Keflex (250mg 4x/day), Metronidazole (500mg 2x/day), Fluconazole (not sure of dosage), Phenazopyridine (for pain 200mg 1 or 2x/day), maybe an occasional Septra, and she was taking the infamous YAZ. I think that covers it..
She has not had any viral signs except for a lip blister inside lower lip that comes and goes. She has not had any skin problems, but yes, I think this all started around that time, after taking many antibiotics for UTIs that were very difficult to cure. She has not had conjunctivitis since a child, except after trying the collagen plugs -- those were a nightmare, itchy and painful.
I do think when the doctor touched her eye with something they were sensitive, I will ask her that. Main concern is the evaporation.
She never had any problem with contacts until this dry eye began, the only difficulty with lenses was dry eyes.
I'm not sure of the staring without blinking, but I think that isn't a problem, one doctor told her to be conscious of her blinks and work on blinking consciously.
Thanks for your interest, any feedback is GREATLY appreciated.
