    Good luck with the doc today, V. I hope you find the cause, or at least get on the path to finding it. I'll be thinking of you. L.

    I was just wondering how your eye was as I was checking out your Nova Scotia pix (very nice, by the way). Sorry to hear that it is still bothering you. I hope you can get it sorted once and for all with this appointment.

    DD, thanks for the reminder to go check out the Nova Scotia pix!

    V--what wonderful pictures. They don't convey the misery of rain and mosquitos at all. (I just wrote that word "mosquitoes", Dan Quayle style ) Beautiful pictures. Is it possible to be homesick for a place I've never lived? NS is such a prominent part of the family history on my Mom's side that I feel like I'm "from" there, too. Thanks for showing its beauty.

    I was tickled to see Rose and Clyde all over, too! What's the name of their cousin who lives with Yellow and Pika? I've met that one!

    This happened to me once, was an allergic reaction, probably to an insect that flew into my eye while riding. I was able to stop it with Benadryl while off the bike. Once I had a very severe allergic rection in my eye, and needed prednisone too (swolen shut). Good luck at the doctors and let us know how it works out!

    So in the 2.5 hours that I have been up, the swelling around the eye has gone away. I hate to go to the doctor and say, "Gee doc, I woke up with this thing, but now it's gone." The headache is still there and the eyeball is still tender. But those are such nebulous things...


    I just want to feel "normal". Whatever that is.

    I hate when something like that happens and then goes away before I can get it checked out. Be sure to snap a picture next time!

    I hope that you can get it all figured out soon.

    Bummer!!! I also hate going ot the doctor and not having the problem anymore. It's like taking your car in, and then it won't make the noise you were complaining about!!!

    Well, I hope you get this figured out. So strange.
