Guest guest Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Feels like I've got a bout of O.N. going now, in both eyes, with the right being a little worse than the left.. No light show, as of yet, only the pain/soreness involved so far. Maybe a touch of double vision, haven't decided on that yet. Hopefully the nurse will have a script called into the pharmacy rather than turning into the guy from The Price is Right saying "Come on Down!".. HUGS |)onna -- Help Feed The Critters!

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Thanks Sharon, And after talking to my neuro-nurse.. she said that doc won't treat unless he's got confirmation that it is O.N. from an ophthalmologist.. (guess a couple of docs got burned -- not sure what she meant, unless they didn't verify the O.N. and the person receiving the IV steroids was fibbing to get them.. and that's a good possibility in that area as well).. but once it's confirmed that it is O.N. he will start the Solumedrol.... Turns out that a neuro-ophthalmologist just joined the "team" recently, and he has an opening tomorrow morning.. as does Doctor .. so I guess I'll be seeing both.. and once Doctor Zayden (ZY-den) confirms, guess Doctor will be sending me to the Infusion Center for the 1st round and then we'll puzzle out the rest of the rounds of treatment.. Hopefully if they are going to do a three day thing with the Solumedrol, they will keep me.. (not that I'm wanting a stay in the hospital) and take care of the treatments that way, rather than me having to figure out how to get in to Pittsburgh every day for these infusions.. The bright side is that if there's inflammation in my back causing the pain that's there between my shoulder blades, again.. and the definite inflammation that's in my knee.. They will all get a nice kick in the read and be on their way shortly.. I'll keep you posted as to the outcome.. I'll load up my laptop and take it with me.. and that way, since the hospital offers wi-fi.. I can still keep in touch.. HUGS |)onna I'm sorry, Donna.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Hey Donna,Little story for you...believe it or not, when I was put on a 3 or 5 day infusion of solumedrol, they hooked me up at home. A nurse came in and started the line; showed me how to flush it with heparin and all the other details, and left me on my own to do it. Apparently, I can only guess, that the insurance wouldn't cover her to come in every day, or for a stay at the hospital. I freaked out. Fortunately, there was a oncology nurse that lived down the street at the time, and I kept asking her to check on what I was doing, and give me a hand. She was shocked that they left me to do this. So, count yourself lucky if they admit you!Let us know what happens, ok? I hope you are feeling better real soon.love and hugs, KateTo: MSersLife Sent: Wed, November 17, 2010 3:00:28 PMSubject: Re: Another run in with O.N.
