    If it isn't one thing, it's another! You are right, you're too young! Seems like the SE's never end with Chemo!
    You will be in my thoughts and prayers! Good luck with surgery!

    After all that
    you have been through this should be a much easier. When my Mom had her eyes done she did not have any problems. I hope the same applies to you.

    Hugs,

    Sorry
    Praying you will get thru the surgery with no problems and see a lot better!

    If it wasn't for seeing 2 of everything, I'd be happy
    Wow, that IS no fair. I hope this is the last of all your troubles for a while. I am 59 and just had both lenses replaced in January and February. I've been nearsighted and worn glasses since I was 5. That leads to early cataracts in the lucky few. Tamoxifen didn't help. Now I can see well at a distance, no more running over curbs in the 'fog' of cataract blurriness. I need glasses to read, as I have since I was 47. However, immediately after the surgery, I developed double vision. That is, when I look at a plane in the sky, I see two. So, whereas I thought I'd be glasses-free from now on, it looks like I need prismatic lenses. I can't get any doc to suggest what is causing this, but they are all anxious to sell me the prism glasses. I hope your results are better.

    You will love the way you see
    You will love the way you see after your cateracts are removed. On my first day back to work, I thought they put all new light bulbs in our office building. Then I realized it was my operation.

    libby ... I am so sorry to hear this. 44 is far too young!
    As I like to say, chemo is the gift that keeps on giving .. side efforts, that is.


    Best of Luck,
