Scleritis

Posted By Sally on August 06, 1999 at 00:24:24
I am having problems with scleritis, first in my right eye now in my left.  The attack in my right eye occurred 18 months ago however I still get bouts of severe pain in it.  MRI scan is normal and nothing can be seen on examination but the pain feels real!  The left eye still has signs of inflammation and has some pain but not as acute as the right eye.  Rheumatoid factor is present as is H LAB 27.  
I have been taking  Votaren 100 mg daily since April. Now with zantac to overcome digestive upsets.  However this is not always sufficient to keep pain under control.
Any suggestions to control pain would be appreciated, and has anyone else had continued pain after active scleritis but with nothing to show for it.
I'm feel stupid going to the GP or specialist who can are equally baffled.
