....does that remind you of Joan Rivers?..."can we talk"?...her famous lead-in to humorous or intimate critique of something or someone....usually good for a little laugh.
Well, my dry eyes due in part to my thyroid disorder really aren't a laughing matter, but I can and still do laugh at myself. I'm aging...that's the truth of it, and one doesn't age as gracefully with thyroid problems. A good working thyroid makes menopause more of a breeze.....which mine has definitely not been....its been more like a tidal wave ...with all it's ups and downs and twists and turns pouring over me, my mind and body for three years now....the side effects of which I can't begin to describe. One such difficulty is recurrent and persistent dry eyes....so uncomfortable ....
I have a friend who has suffered with Grave's Disease for many years now and recently had eye surgery to correct a problem that sometimes arises with the eyes due to the disease. This friend just recommended two products for me to try, one of which I am already getting relief from. GenTeal Lubricant Eye drops, (I picked mild to moderate), and Refresh P.M. Eye Gel lubricant for nighttime.
Thank God for little favors.....and great friends :)
