Well, I had eye surgery on Wednesday April 30th.
For approximately 2 months I have been dealing with a growth on my left eyeball. It was an ugly looking thing that could swell and make closing my eye difficult. It was always changing but never went away. My Ophthalmologist didn't know what it was and the eye surgeon wasn't sure either. That makes one feel a tad bit uncomfortable, to say the least. The eye surgeon did remove it and has sent it out to be biopsied. I go back in on Thursday May 8th and will hopefully find out what the heck that thing was. This has been another learning experience on having patience and faith that all will be fine. Thanks for listening, only my husband and children know about this and I don't want to worry them any more than they already are.

I hope you get some good news when you go back on the 8th.
If both doctors didn't know what it was maybe this will help them diagnose others in the future who might have the same condition. Should be quite the learning experience for both of them.

So sorry that you had to go through this, Snoopy. It must be very hard
on you and your family. I'll be praying that it was just a benign kind of dingy and you will have no further trouble with it.

Hi Snoopy! Here's hoping it's nothing but a thing (old Cajun saying). Or a dingy, like Sally called it. Fingers are crossed for you! Please let us know what you find out.

It's a learning experience for me, too. Although my experience may help some other patient some day I really don't like being on display for other Drs and Interns because I have something that isn't normally, or has never been seen. Had this happen through my childhood and into adulthood due to congenital cataracts. Just love a bunch of medical people taking turns to look Sally: Quote:
I'm hoping for benign, that's always a good thing Sparky: Quote:

I appreciate all of the thoughts and prayers. I have come to a place in my life where I truly put my trust and faith in God regardless of the outcome of a situation. I have experienced some...interesting...things this past year which has strengthened by belief, faith and trust in the Lord. Whatever the biopsy says, I will be fine.

Praying that you hear the words "good news" from both doctors.
