That's a little better... Apparently, I DO need that minuscule dose of thyroid medicine. (insert eye-roll here) I kept forgetting to take it. Then I ran out. Then I kept forgetting to call the doc. Then it was called in to the wrong pharmacy... Started back on it May 1st, but I guess it took a bit to "kick in." What else is new? How many different ways can Wendy fall apart? This week it was the eye doctor. The glaucoma has done more damage, but my pressures look reasonable and my optic nerve looks good. I now have the beginning signs of macular degeneration. Eat the green leafy veggies, free range chicken eggs, and oily fish to help keep it at bay as long as possible. Then he told me about something freaky that's going to happen to me at some point: Posterior Vitreous Detachment. Could happen in a few days, could be 20 years, but WHEN it happens, I am to call him right away. Could cause a tear in the retina or even a detachment. I'm already at a high risk for a detachment (1 in 20). *sigh* I feel like I shouldn't be this old at 51. Off to my mammogram... wish me luck!!
