Not good news

[Agent Smith]

Since I was about 16, I've been dealing with some unknown illness and have had quite a few tests, but haven't been able to pinpoint what's wrong.

Fast forward 7 years to today and I'm now 23, and for the past couple weeks I've been seeing flashes of light appearing in my vision, and after doing some research, I found out that could mean a retinal detachment.

I made an appointment today, and just got back from the eye doctor only to find out that I have Papilledema, which means there is something pressing on my optic nerve.

The doctor told me a few things that could be causing it, among them being Meningitis, or a brain tumor.

I have an appointment for an MRI, but that's not for 5 days, unless my doctor can get me in sooner. The wait is going to be agony.

Keep your chin up, we'll all say a prayer or two for you.

That sucks. I'll say a prayer and have the pagan wife burn a vegetable or whatever it is she does.

My prayers go out to you, I know how you feel. I have a biopsy surgury on April 15 of my T10 vertebrae.
