I can't believe this doctor!!!

Acarol, please don't say that! Dry eyes is something we will have to think about until we get it under control, and then it'll be simple maintenance, like brushing our teeth =))

My therapist told that until a very respected Dr. in the dry eye field tells me that there is nothing left to be done (until a new drug is invented) and I have to feel like this for rest of my life, DO NOT resort to thinking we will feel that way forever. Yeah, it's hard, but I think its good sound advice. Or else I would just want to crawl in my bed and never come out.

Speaking of weddings, my boyfriend just asked me when I want to get hitched with him, and my response was "When my eyes feel better."

probably not the romantic response he was looking for...

And speaking of being romantic, he was absolutely delighted that I had bought tranquileyes to use at night....until he realized it was for my dry eyes

LOL that was funny. My boyfriend asked if I had something I wanted to tell him when he saw mine!

And yes the wedding plans were delayed, we were all set to meet the caterer but the summer temp. gets to over 100% this time of year where we are planning to get married, so I couldn't confirm a date, despite terrible pressure from those traveling from abraod, and at the time I was having in agony from erosions...they just didn't get it and it made me so mad.

So I made an offical announcement. When I am feeling better there will be a date set, until then, back off. Worked a treat. What I didn't tell them though 1s that we have decided that as soon as I am better we are getting the baby making machine into action, and any wedding can wait, I am three months on Doxy and I'm sure I will be ready once they are gone from my system...just don't tell my mom.

Any Marykate I agree with you. Once we can get to the root of our problems then we will be able to find what works for us. Once we find what works for us then we will be able to treat ourselves or find treatment for ourselves. I think alot of my problems up to now have been caused by not knowing what is going on and in trying to find someone to help me. I have got alot of clues and tips through this site.

I feel I have am starting to undertand what is going on, and it took three months to get this far. I'm hoping the more I learn more in control I can become. Sometimes the worst part is just not knowing, because then you don't know what to be doing.

Anyway, in the mean time I have worked this with my other half, never did i think I would be able to request foot massages every night
