Hello Again

Ok just when I think I have settled a bit, I looked in mirrior this am and saw not only extremely dark under both eyes but in the area in the inner corners of both eyes.

Thats new, anyone else?

Thanks

Gina

Gallp, I have dark under my eyes And puffer eyes than pre-PMR , I mentioned my puffy eyes and had some useful replies, one sharing about Camille teabags on eyes and another was breakfast tea - cold of course) bathing my eyes, very good and soothing and I'm sure my puffy eyes weren't so puffy! But I will be interested in any comments on dark under eyes. Good luck.

Absolutely the same. Have invested in Bobbi Brown corrector and concealer makeup!

Hello, since Pred (GCA only) I have joined Pandas R Us. I can't remember how soon it was before I looked in the mirror and decided I qualified, but I do now. Not helped by puffier upper cheeks and under eye area that just adds to the look 🐼. The lady in the Post Office has cottoned on to this and I get an extra "aww" now. I may tell her it can be arranged that I give her the same look AND she'd get it without having to take Pred!

Hello Gall.. l have suffered with puffy dark panda eyes for a long time now ..I do use cold chamomile t-bags on my eyes twice a day when they feel tired and puffy and my GP spotted them on my last visit to her and prescribed some laptop 0.5% eye drops for me.. l have found that it does calm the eyes down and not quite so puffy. We do have to put up with so many other problems with PMR and of course the warmer weather maybe aggravating it . Best wishes ..trish 29

I don't have a problem with eyes, but I get puffy ankles, especially the right one, in the warm weather. I showed it to my Chiro last week and he thought I had twisted my ankle and put a small bone out, maybe some time ago, he tweaked it and did some massage and it is a lot better now. I put frozen peas on it last night and wore an elastic bandage in bed and today it looks normal. Seeing him again Thursday, see if it needs more work.

Yes have got the dark under the eyes and in the corners of the eyes- like Suetom have just been using makeup - Yves Saint Laurent , touché eclat to minimise this.
