Even after the nightmare scenario from last week the poison cup didn’t turn out to be empty just yet… At work on Friday my eye situation got worse… So much worse I decided to go back to the hospital Friday afternoon and have it checked out again. Smart move. It got much worse.

The inflammation, number of bad white cells in my eye, had increase dramatically. Making my vision very blurry and in general a huge setback… Got a new special cure with 12 different eye drops to try and reduce the inflammation. Finished off with some drops of cocaine to make my pupil bigger. Yes, cocaine! Quite crazy if you ask me, but as with “normal” cocaine users, the drug makes your pupils bigger, something they were looking for.

After that I had to go back to the hospital on Saturday morning for yet another 12 drops cure, no cocaine this time, but followed with another anti-inflammation injection in my eye… Sadness… although the doctors don’t wanne give any time-estimations in regards to this setback, it’s quite clear to me it will take at least the amount of time it took last time… as that uveitis was much less serious then this one and already took 5 weeks to fully cure… Postponing the trip even more is inevitable again… :-( Sadness…

Still no clue what the cause is for my eye inflammations… no results just yet from the blood tests and lung x-rays… But even so, the doctors are guessing now in the direction of HLA-B27. A medical term for a certain blood condition, and pointing towards problems regarding rheumatoid arthritis…
