To be honest, I have never had my doctor try and measure or capture my vision going to crap. It comes and goes during the day – depending on my activity levels (translation – if I am out and about in the world, it is likely that my vision has gone to shit) BUT what I experience does NOT seem to strike me as something that corrective lenses or contacts could correct, otherwise I guess I would have asked the dr about it. The blurry/cloudy vision I experience is very different than the blurry I get from not wearing my prescription glasses – not sure how to explain how that is – it just is?

Oh this wonderful, fantastical disease:)

I can’t tell you how many times I have asked Shawn to clean my glasses, only to discover that it is my EYES that are “smudged” NOT my glasses:)

Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing!!!!

Your post came just when needed. It does not have to be a snotty cold,rainy day to have your eyes go all wonky. I noticed yesterday my vision seemed a little” off”. Checked my contacts to make sure they were in the right eyes and hoped today would yield clear sight after a good nights sleep. Not happening. Today in 80* as I sat in the car looking at a magazine, blinking one eye after the other hoping that I put the wrong lens in the wrong eye I finally admitted to myself what I already knew but did not want to accept. That nudge to let you know it’s still there, checking in to see if you are on your toes,we are always looking ourselves over, taking inventory It’s not the first time nor will it be the last. I summed it up like you did. Everyday is a challenge. Just when you think you have scratched something off the never ending list of “MSists” you get the reminder that it’s the gift lol that keeps on giving. I sometimes wonder if we could bottle all of MSers energy together to get through all our days, we could rule the world and find a cure. Then it would be Peanuts for everyone!

I get the need to bitch ???.
Yes the glasses thing well need different pair for every different minute of your day ???.
When I get weird looks when in a bar or restaurant wearing dark glasses, I just say I’m an aged rock goddess in disguise.

🙂 As I was working on this post last night Shawn said “you know, it’s kinda lucky that you have MS – it gives you a lot of material to write about” and he is absolutely right! Living with this disease and trying to put into words all the crazy ass shit that goes on in my mind and body has become my mission in life:)
As with everything else this disease throws at me, I will figure out a way around this – just needed to bitch for a moment:)

And don’t even get me started on GLASSES – that is a whole other post for another day:)

XOXO
