Went for appt this morning & the great news is I,m ok to keep taking hydroxy!! What a relief as I,m doing fine on it right now :)

He said there is some deposits somewhere (I was on my own in the testing room so didnt take it all in) but it,s not caused by the drug so I,m ok to continue with it & I,m under them now & they,ll call me in a year, if I see any changes to go straight back, I,m so happy as with xmas almost here I didn,t want to be messing around having to change drugs. I do have blepharitis & dry eye but they can be easy sorted. When asked what causes that both answered same time *old age* don,t you just luv this old age business lolol :D

Mnay thanks to all for info on what to expect at eye clinic & like to wish everyone Merry Christmas & a Happy & Peaceful New Year as painfree, stress free as possible :)

That's good news. Old age is not in my vocabularly. I prefer to use 'experienced and wise after the event'.🤣
