Eye problems
by sickgirl83, May 10, 2008 09:12PM
When I posted my question for some reason it did not post my whole question:
Hello,
I wanted to know if someone could possibility tell me if they have an idea of what could be wrong with my eye.
- About two to three times each week I will get these horrible headaches behind my right eye. It feels like pressure in and around my eye socket. It is very painful. It makes me want to rip out my eye. Often I become nauseated when this happens.
- I have been having vision problems also. When I look at something it looks like there is light snow or mist in front of it but the strange part about it is it looks like it is vibrating. I can see whatever I am looking at clearly it just looks like there is vibrating snow in front of it. It is almost like the light in front of it is vibrating. This is very difficult to explain. The only time this does not happen is in the dark, it gets worse in bright light. So I am thinking it may have something to do with light?
- Also my right upper eyelid is droopy this comes and goes and becomes worse in the dark or dim light
-I should also add that I cough up a lot of mucus, wake up with blood clots in my nose sometimes, cough up streaks of blood sometimes, and sometimes have a crushing feeling in my right arm. Also I have tremors since I was about 17. These symptoms are small compared the other symptoms I have listed and could be related to something else but I thought I should mention them because who knows maybe they have something to with what could be wrong.
I also wanted to add that last may I had a mini stroke/ TIA but the doctors never found the cause for it. After the TIA my right eye has been droopy on and off and I also get muscle weakness where it becomes difficult for me to use my right arm and right leg. The doctors have not been able to find a reason for this. I am really thinking that maybe my eye symptoms have something to do with my on-going neurological problems.
Thank you very much for your time
