Remember how I said that I would like a peaceful and quiet December with nothing unforeseen happening? Well, naturally something unforeseen did quickly happen. My right eye started acting up again. Pains and watering. So Monday morning we went back to the hospital for an unscheduled checkup. <\/p>\n
It turned out that the pressure was no higher than it was at last week’s checkup. But the doc said that there had been some reactions to the laser treatment. That was probably what I was feeling. At last week’s checkup it was decided that I should stop taking one of the two eyedrops I’d been on. The doc yesterday said that it might have been too soon that I stopped with those. That was my feeling too, that it wasn’t necessarily that the pressure had risen but I was just feeling the effects more after I stopped with those eyedrops. So now I am back on both eyedrops. And it has already helped. No more pain. The eye still waters sometimes, especially when I read or look at bright, white colours. But it’s much better already. <\/p>\n
I got a new appointment next week. I’ll be talking to the lady doctor who is the expert on the laser stuff. The one who did the laser treatement. We’ll see what she says. I have previously said that I thought I wouldn’t need a second round of lasers, but now I think I most likely will need it. The pressure is still around 40 in the right eye. It should be around 12-14 I think. So while it’s not a big problem as long as I take my eyedrops, I still think I’ll need more lasers to get the pressure down and get completely off the meds.<\/p>\n
The appointment is on Tuesday, December 15th. Maybe if I’m lucky I can still get a quiet and peaceful christmas and new years. Unless something unforeseen happens. Haha. Nervous laughter.<\/p>\n
Other than that, the big news in Denmark right now is of course the climate conference in Copenhagen. All eyes on us, apparently. I do hope they will, you know, save the world and all. I can’t help getting cynical about it though, as always when politics are involved. I hope everyone gets a good photo op with Obana. Most fun so far was our prime minister being introduced as “his excellency”. Hah. I haven’t heard that one before. Anyway, good luck to them all. We want to leave a healthy planet to the goats, when they inevitably take over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
