I hoped to start this new week in a better frame of mind despite still being unable to see properly. I had a serious talk with myself, and now I feel more positive about a lot of things.
Last week was pretty hopeless as I battled to do all my usual jobs. Wearing my reading glasses made the eye worse, so reading and writing were out of the question. I found out that you can do quite a lot of other things with vision problems, but deep down inside, I was secretly terrified I was going blind. I did the one thing they tell you not to do and googled my symptoms, only to find there were a lot more things to worry about, like brain tumours.
Instead of depressing me even more, I walked away from the computer feeling better than I had all week. Learning about the worst that could happen somehow had the reverse effect on me. I made a doctor’s appointment and tried to forget what I had read.
One of the things I read about was diabetes. For the longest time, I have been a borderline diabetic, but recent blood tests show that I may have just crossed the line. This can have a serious effect on your vision. If this is the case, all I have to do is regulate my diet, and it should go away again.
Sounds easy, doesn’t it?
I hope this is what’s wrong and that I can fight my way through it, for I’m not ready to give everything up. I mean, what would I do all day?
