about

I am 48 years old (yes that's old compared to some of you).


I have worked in nursing and/or healthcare management positions for 24 years. Primarily OB, Neonatal, Mental Health, Occupational Health and Geriatrics. In Jan 2008 I started my own business to board horses and do equine/human education. I am also a certified dog trainer.


I've been around the block so to speak and seem to be always helping others. I've been told that the reason people seek me out for advice is that I am approachable and caring. But on the same token even though I consider the person's feelings. I tell it like I see it. I've dealt with people in trouble with the law, dysfunctional families such as those with abuse & marriage problems. Not to mention problems with employees and employers.


I don't ever claim to know it all, and always keep an open mind.

advice

i had contacts for roughly a year now and since the summer time i've been getting in a bad habiat of leaving my contacts in over night for sometimes 3-4 weeks in a row. then my eyes would become a lil uncomfortable and i would take the contacts out that night and put new ones in. towards the end of school my eye got bloodshot and i could barely open it because light would bother it very badly and i took care of my eye and rested and it eventually went away in a few days (about 4-5 days. so now its about 2months later and the same thing happened but in my other eye and its about the 3rd day..i can open my eyes and i can handle light alott easier now and its still bloodshot..it should go away in about 3 days but when i look out my eye it seems cloudyish. my question is if anyone had this before and if the cloudyness will go away in a few days just like the bloodshot should? i know i should see a doctor because no one should play games with their eyes but this same thing happened before and it healed fine and this time i notice cloudyness which i dont really remeber having the first time in the other eye.

Yes, I think you should see a Dr. If anything he/she can give you something to help your eye heal faster. Perhaps you could set an alarm to remember when it's time to remove your contacts?

(Rating: 5) well now its pretty nuch healed..it happened before and just took about a week and its the same thing this time..i think the alarm clock idea is good and i should prolly get an alarm clock just for the contacts and set it for like 1am each day in case i fall asleep or w/e.
