photo-49 So my cold? Yeah it seems it is much more than that. A lot worse.

Yesterday I woke up with what I thought was just some sleeper peepers in my eyes. I had to work the “pick your own strawberry” stand at the market in the morning for them, so I was outside a lot yesterday. Later John comments that my eyes are bloodshot. I thought maybe it was allergies being outside and all.

Later in the day I begin to think, wow, it’s really hazy. John comments my eyes are really bloodshot still. He jokes maybe I have pink eye. Ass! He jinxed me. I don’t think I have pink eye, but I do think it’s conjunctivitis. (post edit: I thought they were the same, but someone told me they weren’t, but yeah they are) I had a lot of goop in my eye by night. I figured I’d know in the morning or not.

Woke up this morning with my eyes encrusted shut. Yup, pretty sure it’s conjunctivitis. What am I, 2 years old? Don’t worry mom, I’m calling the doctor in the morning.

On the upside, I’ve totally lost like 5 pounds 🙂

  1. pink eye is conjunctivitis. it looks like it, call your doc in the morning.

  2. I thought it was the same thing but someone told me they were different LOL because of the puss. Yes I said puss.

  3. Karen’s right, they are the same thing. The bloodshot eyes and crusty goo are the dear give away. If you call your dr, they should just treat you over the phone. Hope your eye feels better 🙂

  4. oh it’s alllllll about the puss. don’t worry i work in a children’s hospital, all i have to do is say pink eye and i catch it! i actually have antibiotic eye drops at the ready for when i do get it.

  5. John’s eyes were burning tonight lol. So when I call the doctor I’ll be like, I need a prescription for 2 most likely!
