Steph, so sorry about the dentist, what a nightmare!! I couldn't imagine! I've had two crowns but both went as well as could be expected. I always take a Xanax (like Valium) before I have any big work done and ALWAYS get the gas!! I hope your next appt goes better!!
Thanks! My next appointment was today, and it did go better than the other ones.. It was probably the least traumatic one I have had in a while. Anywho, I already wrote all about that so I won't bore you with the details again!

Panda gave you some good info on the eye dr thing. It does sound like GPC and its relatively commonly. It can be caused by an allergic reaction or just plain irratation. Like if you weren't cleaning your lenses well enough or were trying to wear each pair for too long before replacing it. What brand of cl's are you currently wearing and which solution were you using?
The eye doc didn't say I should stop wearing my lenses, do you think I should leave them out? I am not wearing them now, but I hate not being able to.
I am using Acuvue Advanced lenses, and I WAS using Complete and now it's... I can't remember the name. It's the kind that you have to leave to fix and stuff for 6 hours.. I think she said it was hydrogen peroxide solution.

Night and Day lenses by Ciba are a newer silicone lens and are designed to allow more oxygen to your eye, which is why you can wear them for 30 days at a time! They are a good lens but not everyone can keep them in that long without giving their eyes a break for a night and they can be a bit pricey as I know you are on a budget. Accuvue makes a lens called Accuvue Advance with Hyrdoclear, its also a very good lens and is a bit cheaper.
That's the one I use, but I wear them for two weeks and only during the day.
Thanks for the advice!!
Cheers and hugs,
--Steph
