Eye Specialist

Well, Thursday, January the 22nd, Matthew and I drove up to Beckley to see a eye specialist. During last exam down here, they found swelling and bleeding behind both my eyes. Well, assistant did a few test and when she checked my blood pressure it was too high to go any further. The doctor wouldn't even come in and see me. One of the test, they inject dye into you and because my blood pressure was so high, if they did that test it could cause my kidneys to shut down. So, I go back on Feb. 5th. I was told to go to the er or my doctor. I chose my doctor and she was able to see me that same day. I am on a 2nd blood pressure pill to help the other one that I am on. I believe it is working, my blood pressure was down some when I checked it tonight before church. What really is messed up about my eyes is, that since I have been on insulin, my eye sight has gotten better. Oh well. Goodnight
