Guest guest Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 Greetings...I am so bummed out. I went tp the vet (What I call the V.A.), and had my eye appt. I have been waiting onthem to start the things they have to do, so I can have my cataracts removed. Ha! Well, it turns out, that on my LAST visit, they " forgot " to tell me that they found out I had GLAUCOMA!!. They ALSO forgot to order eyedrops for me, so I don't go blind!. Oh , what fun! Tammy was furious, and I just felt really bummed out. Now, it seems that not only do I have severe R.A., bad enough that I give myself three injections a week, plus scads of pills, AND cataracts, now I have glaucoma! They told me that before they can even start to take my cataracts out, first they have to lower the pressure in my eyes! Bummer! Now, I know that lots of you have problems that far outweigh mine in severity, put it still kind of slays me that they could just " forget " . makes me wonder what else they have forgotten! I can't go anywhere BUT the vets, 'cause I have no insurance, no savings, and no Dr. to go to other than them! Bummer! Anyone else ever run into this kind of situation? I know so little of glaucoma...all I know is there is no cure and you go blind. Any info on this would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for listening to my petty problems! My love to all of you.....ken --------------------------------- FareChase - Search multiple travel sites in one click. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
