Anybody experience eye pain or the sensation that your eyes are bulging?

Just curious...

what is uveitis? inflammation of ....something in the eye? outside?muscle/tendon?lining?

thanks again for the info! :)

Also, got to an eye doctor  for a full eye exam to rule out uveitis.  Good luck!

If they aren't sure about lymphoma, sarcoidosis absolutely mimics it.  They should do an ACE test and a lung x-ray at the very least.

yes...post thyroid cancer(papillary with a follicular variant - metastasized to lymph nodes). Now it looks like I may have lymphoma...the jury is still out on that one.

I think it's still thyroid.

Yeah, that sounds like TED.  I have this.  It was worse when I was hyperthyroid, but I still have it after treatment.  Can also cause grittiness, excessive tearing, and puffiness of eyes. Do you have any thyroid issues?

[bluebird777]

it seems like my eyeballs themselves kinda have this real low grade ache all the time. it feels like a pressure coming from inside my eyes.

[bluebird777]

no...never heard of it...but i will now

Have you looked into Thyroid eye disease"?

[bluebird777]

thank you :)

I do, but especially when I take calcitriol, a form of D, for low calcium.  I also have Hadhimoto's and Sarcoidosis and supposedly, people with auto-immune diseases do not do well on extra D.
