The day before my wedding they hit, and one of my eyes went blurry. Its still blurry (I wear glasses, I hoped my prescription was just off, its not). Anyway when I went to my doctor....they said high blood pressure and prescribed medication. Only.....I don't have high blood pressure, it goes up a little when I am nervous, but otherwise no problems. Then my optometrist looked in my eyes, scared the hell out me by sending me off immediately with a sealed envelope to another office. They thought it was a tumor, or some kind of deposits that was causing symptoms like a tumor. He even showed me the deposits in the first scan. They sent me for an MRI, scan came back clean (I'm thankful for that) so they thought, hey they figured out why the nerves were swollen, why my eye was blurry, what medication to put me on....YAY! NOPE. Came back to the office, one guy looks and says hey, yes, this all looks abnormal, but really its normal FOR YOU...and the THREE other doctors that saw all of the problems suddenly say, oh we must have been wrong......:rolleyes: I think my optometrist is still confused. So am I.
Turns out the dizziness is from some kind of weird inner ear problem that was pretty much solved (so far) with physical therapy. Go figure. Eye is still blurry though, and I still have the headaches, more and more frequent now.
