Prognosis

Bacterial or viral conjunctivitus. Don't be surprised if it spreads to the other eyes. Don't resume using contracts until your eye has been clear for several days. Ugghhhh, banished to ugly ducklinghood in my stupid glasses. Damn. Anti-bacterial eye drops: Sulfacetamide Sodium Ophthalmic Solution. May cause stinging, rash, itching, redness, swelling or discharge (including the eye or ear area), trouble breathing. Great. It's gonna be a long week.

My first trip through Kaiser was interesting though. Took all day to get through to someone and try to get an appt., which was frustrating, after which I ended up going to Urgent Care. However, once I got in it was a breeze. No waiting. Was treated well. $5 copay for the visit and $5 for the prescription. Painless. Can't beat that, just can't beat it.

But oh this eye... it's just not pretty.
