Another question--vision issues.

Mon, 08/07/2006 - 09:41
I'm still on the Depakote & Lamictal. I was wondering if any of you have vision problems. I can see fine, but my eyes sort of..hurt, I guess. Like sometimes it's hard to look up--like there's this pressure. It's not all the time--comes and goes but it's really frustrating.

See, and I have no idea if this is even related to the meds--it's probably not, but that's always the first place I think of (I'm kind of a hypochondriac. Leukemia does that you). Now, the problem is my right eye. It's kind of...fuzzy almost all the time. And my right eyelid is definetely lower than the left. Like I can't open the lid all the way. Doesn't really hurt; just feels weird. And my eyes are all red but that's just from rubbing at them all the time. I'm not wearing any eye makeup so it's not that. Like I said, it's probably not the meds but I still think that right away. My labs aren't back yet.
