health, eyes (-) 

Went in for a routine eye exam, and they found precursors to a retinal disorder in my left eye-- the same one that I had to get a year of painful treatments for when it hit my right eye 7-8 years ago.

Dammit, I thought I was done with this. And I'd just book with a retinologist and get it out of the way, but... I'm in the middle of changing insurance and haven't even gotten my new card yet.

Gonna be stressed and preoccupied for a while, yeah.

@acetone_kitten It's cool, but thanks hun! <3 The more I read about it, the more it sounds like I basically caught this at Stage 0. It's actually *better* than what happened to me in Boston... as this shit goes.

And this time around, we know what to look for-- instead of dicking around for a whole month while it got worse, like last time, I can pop straight into the nearest retinologist and say HIT ME.
