You're Inflammation is Better, But...

Very busy day today. This morning started with getting blood work done. Then I had an eye appointment. I have been to the eye doctor 4 times in the last two months because the doctor found I had significant inflammation in my eyes. (Brought on by an underlying infection i.e. Lyme Disease.) This visit was my third time hoping the inflammation would be gone. I am happy to report is around 90% gone. The doctor was very pleased with the results, however, there was a "but." He said the medications I am taking to decrease the inflammation sometimes causes higher pressure in eyes.
Yup, you guessed it, I am that rare case. I will continue with the inflammation meds , add another for the pressure, and go back in ten days.
Though exhausted, Mom and I ran some errands. There definitely times where I had to sit on the floor while we were out. Its funny the responses I have encounters. Some people act like that person with a cane is a nuisance, others have conversations. Today one of the times I sat down on the floor, a worker asked if I needed help up. Mom was helping me though. Suddenly, the guy was like, "Do you need me to call an ambulance for you?" Later, I told mom, "Well, that escalated quickly." Haha.
We had a good day together, even bought some plants!
Although very late, I am finishing my large bag as I type.
Tomorrow I have another antibiotic day.
I am hoping to go to sleep as soon as I am done with this LR bag. Please be praying for my eyes, my sleep, and my stomach/gut. The meds have hit my stomach at this point. I have also been having a sharp pain in my right side back area. Lastly, having the line in has triggered a few existing things, namely MCAS and costochondritis. Both of these can get very painful and uncomfortable.
Thank you for your prayers and all those checking in with me.
