I have not even heard from the new doctor yet to set up an appointment. If he doesn't call today, I am calling the referring specialist, getting his number, and calling myself.

I am 95% sure Scott has the same thing now. The whites of his eyes are pink and they are very veiny looking. I told him it looks like pink eye, but he refuses to go to a doctor. Maybe he has had it this whole time too but hasn't been showing symptoms. Maybe I can't get rid of it because he's not being treated for it either.

Anyways, on top of this I am still having sinus problems and for the past two days I've had terrible chest congestion and a cough. I can't say after this long that anything is related, but it's all just making me pretty miserable.

Oh yeah, and the new drops haven't helped at all yet. Frustrating.

Did this all start before toy moved into your new house? I think it did so it's probably not anything environmental, but it's just a thought.

We moved in April and it started in mid-June... I had that feeling too but I think we were there long enough before that it should have started earlier if that were the case. We did get new bedroom furniture just before it started, but that's all that has changed. But I have been away from the house, even on holidays for a week, and it doesn't get better when I'm away from home.

My appointment is tomorrow afternoon. I asked the receptionist if my pupils will be dilated and I'm glad I asked because the answer was yes... Scott will take time off work to go with me now. I don't think I will be able to come back to work after it either. They say it lasts for an hour or so but it seems to last much longer with me. Last time they were dilated around 4:00 and I couldn't even look at the tv until around 7:00... it's more comfortable just to keep my eyes closed!

I looked at the new doctor's information online and he's actually a surgeon. But obviously he's specialized enough that he might be able to figure something out. The building is the same place where they do lasik and other optical surgeries so they have very specialized equipment and hopefully can see a little more. Scott's eyes have been continuously getting more and more red too, so it MUST be something contagious or an allergy or something. It's not affecting JUST me.

I feel like I've waited forever for this appointment and the day is finally here. Please cross your fingers that he can find out what's wrong!
