My husband has another appointment with the eye specialist this afternoon. I will be going with him in order to drive him home. He will probably be getting another injection in his eye. Before we go to his appointment, we have to pick up prescriptions at the drug store that our primary doctor called in last week for both of us. That will be a quick in and out, hopefully. After the drug store stop, we will grab lunch somewhere quick hopefully. We were looking forward to going to the little authentic Italian restaurant, but I remembered when I woke up that they are closed on Monday!! ERRR! After the doctor appointment I need to run into Walmart and get more bottled water. It should be a fast trip in and out. My hubby will probably sit in the car and wait. I'll be back later this afternoon or early evening. What are you up to today? Photo Credit: Public Domain

Eye injections give me the creeps. I've had retinal surgery and cataract surgery and both times they terrified me. I hope everything works out so your hubby won't need surgery.

Laser surgery on his eye is what led to the scar tissue causing this problem. He did not get an injection today, but the doctor wants to start them back up next month. He did get an appointment for new glasses. I am really beginning to wonder about this doctor.

Anymore I get the feeling many doctors are simply using their patients as lab rats @kareng

I already had a nap so I feel lazy. I didn’t sleep last night though so I guess it had to happen. Hopefully, his appointment went well. An injection in the eye sound scary.

I hope you got over the lazies from your nap! Sometimes that happens and you just want to stay IN bed!! He has been getting the injections for a year now. The problem with the scar tissue started to clear up, but other problems have popped up. Sinus issues contributed to the problem and nobody has given him anything to help it...yet. Just picked up new medicen today that our primary doctor gave him last week. The specialist had him on antibiotic, and then he was referred to another specialist for the problem who have him drops and a salve. He was worse off when he finished all the meds so asked primary for help. I'm beginning to lose faith in the doctors at this practice and suggested a second opinion on our way home today. I hope he thinks about it and considers it.

I was going to head to church and change the saying on the outside sign, but then I had an appointment, and I had to make other phone calls and do some things on the computer...I have an appointment this afternoon that I'm going to cancel, since the appointment I had this morning was for the exact same thing.

We managed to get everything done and grabbed an Arby's shake on the way home. My hubby ordered large ones and that will be my dinner. I'm stuffed now.

He has been getting them monthly for a year now. I wouldn't be able to do it either. They would have to put me under I think.
