What I dont quite understand tho is that I can take a hot shower, and it doesnt bother my vision as much as walking around outside in the sun did yesterday.

Is heat from the hot water not the same quality of heat as walking around in hot bright sunlight?

Last night when I went to bed, I was cold, so I wrapped up in one of my crocheted shawls that I made, and had the throw my boyfriend got me for christmas one year, and felt pretty good for a few hours until I woke up all hot and sweaty. Had to turn my ceiling fan on and lay there with no blankets until I got cold again and curled up under the blankies and went back to sleep.

argh! at least the heat seems to only bother my eye so far...and I'm happy that it seems like it's not bothering my left eye that had the ON so bad when all this crap first started. That sort of tells me that my optic nerve for the left eye recovered some myelin when it healed.
