I'm New And Would Appreciate Some Advice Posted: 05-03-06 16:15pm
Hi, i'm tina i'm a 17 year oold female
from northern ireland. This is a lng
story. 5 years ago I was told I had
glaucoma and put on eye drops too control
it which worked fine untill october 2005.
I have no vision in my left eye. The
pressure went up so high and I felt very
sick all the time. We tried different eye
drops, laser treatment and surgery to
remove the lens from the bad eye but that
failed to work. I eneded up having an
evisceration (removal of the inside but
leave the white of the eye) we all thought
that the nausea was because the pressure
was so high but now the eye is gone and I
have my artificial eye in. I'm still
feeling sick. It gets worse at night and
in the morning. Sometimes I get this
feeling that something is running in my
stomach at the bottom. It feels like
something cold just hitting it. I feel ok
when I eat but there's days is bad all day
and I can't eat or drink much and there is
some nights that I do think i'm going to
vomit but I never do (thank goodness) I am
waiting to have the camera into my stomach
to see if there is anything going on. All
my blood tests have been all normal. Have
had lots of aunti-sickness
tablets/injections but they don't seem to
work that well. I'm really fed up feeling
like this. I've been on tablets for an
uncler to see if they would help but they
didn't :cry: everyone keeps saying "are
you sure it's not in your head"? But I
really don't thiink it is.
