Dear sleepy60,

DON'T be too 'sleepy' on this one- get yourself 'checked out' NOW- not next week, or the next rash, or the next time you feel ill, or the next.......DO IT NOW, RIGHT F.....G NOW!!!! If it is, the beginning of a flare- or even if it's not, please, please, PLEASE...don't leave it! Sorry to 'bang on' so much but reading your posts is making me feel very, very nervous, for you!

I do so hope that you answer this, by telling me, how wrong I was and that there wasn't that much the matter,after all. That would, very much, make my day.

I send you my very best wishes, once again, do get 'checked'.

You should always get new or worsening symptoms checked out. Eye problems need checking out quickly.

please let us know how you get on.

Hi been to eye specialist for my diabetic issues this week saw different dr & he had no idea what vasculitis was & said does it run in the family! Gave me drops for dry eyes! Not impressed!
