1 UGH!

My eye (singular) is killing me. It started Sunday and has just gotten worse. My first thought was pink eye, so I started myself on some leftover antibiotic eye drops. Today I don't think it is a bacterial infection because it has just gotten worse. Last night I woke up several time from the pain and had to wash the goobers out of it. My eye lid is now so swollen I can only open it half way. I HATE to spend $100 on another doctor appointment, but now I'm scared I might actually have something stuck under my eyelid that is scratching and irritating it. On the other hand, it could be yet another stupid viral infection. Oh, we've been over this same debate too many times this week. WHY? Nate says it's Murphy's law: when we had good insurance we hardly ever used it, but now that we have a crappy individual plan the viruses are descending on our home.
