My Swollen Eye #4
Posted by Ling on March 10, 2006
Wow! I am so blessed. Everyone must have been praying ultra-hard for me because I didn’t actually get my eye operation!!!
I was rather disappointed though because I was looking forward to being Pirate Ling…
My appointment was at 3.20pm but I wasn’t seen till 4.05pm. During that time, I was very nervous and had to go and empty the peebox 5 times!! My mum wasn’t with me because she had to pick up my brothers from school, so I was slightly worried by myself.
When they finally called me in, the Doctor bombarded me with questions relating to the lumpy eye….and before he even checked it, he scared me with things that might happen after the operation, e.g. scarring, tearing of the eyes, etc, etc…
“I would advise you to leave it alone for now..”
But I was still determined until his nurse butt in and reinforced what he had said.
The Doc could tell I was still wanting the operation, so only then, he had a look…
He got this wooden stick thing and flicked my eyelid out (if you know what I mean)…
“Yeh…mmhmm…if I were you, I would leave it alone….blah blah blah….”
So I still have a lumpy swollen eye!!!!
(Anyway, this incident reminds me of what I do when patients come in to see me with wisdom teeth problems. I usually dissuade them to get anything done and scare them with the scary stuff, e.g. sliced gum and bone is drilled…blah blah…)
teehee…
Thanks for your thoughts and prayers!!

I’ve never noticed any lump before… so the next time I see you, if you think I’m staring at you in a strange way, I’m just looking for the lump!

if the lump on ur eye doesnt affect you in any way then you are just better off leaving it alone right?
It is crap how you psyche urself up for it to be done, just for the doc to say nah though…
Take care!
