eye stuff, just thinking out loud 

You know, really... my eyes are in LESS danger than they were two days ago. I'm in the exact same situation I was in before: there's a genetic Sword of Damocles dangling over me, and on any given day I could develop a little pinprick of light that won't go away, and it'll start growing bigger and bigger.

That was always true. Now I just know for sure that the sword is still there. In retrospect... I had no real reason to believe it had ever gone.

And this time I won't spend a whole month letting an inept PCP fuck my referral over before I go in to see somebody. Even after that, they undid a lot of the damage in my right eye, and now I can at least see 20/50 out of it-- and don't have double vision anymore...

Okay, I've spent some time looking good and hard at the worst-case scenarios, and there's a way past all of them. I'll be okay. Just wish my brain's alert panel understood this fact. :p

@zebratron2084 yeah, convincing one's brain that "ALERT ALERT ADRENALINE BOOST INCOMING WOOOOGAH" is sometimes really not helpful can be very very difficult. >___<
