So, I had some very fucked up and horrifying nightmares. Rapey kinds. Really Bad Memory kinds.
I woke up in a state of utter confusion and to my absolute terror, my left eye, the not-blind one, was blotted out by a giant floater.
Just like when I had optic neuritis two years ago and lost my vision in my right eye. It's weird, I can sorta see out of my right eye. I can tell that my pj pants are blue but I'm red-green colorblind, everything is pixelated and blurred beyond correction. And no matter how large the font, I can't read. Detail is smeared, warped and pixelated with ...snow? Like bad TV reception. And it doesn't adsorb light at all well. TV and computer screens and windows are gray hazes. Nothing can be done because MS scarred and fucked up my optic nerve.
So, I woke with a giant floater of like a circle that has been burned onto my retina. And the panic attack of the century. I was shaking, about to puke, so so so terrified, and my mind started racing through What Being Completely Blind Meant.
4 Xanax later, the floater was gone. Then my blood sugar plummeted. So, I panicked to Cat, and she sent a kid up with some caramel corn. I was so freaked out, I called Angela and damned near cried over the phone. One of my biggest fears, right below losing Becca, is losing the sight I have left. Angela was exactly what I needed, she just...knows. She was there. She knows how bad it was.
I'm in my room, very very very doped up, and wanting nothing to do with anyone. I'm still shaky.
I need to go in and see the neuro because I now have to take MS seriously and prob start the injections again.
I think I'm drained of empathy now. I'm just done.
