    Hi Everyone,
    I’m still in the hotel waiting on the blasted movers! I miss my
    computer, right now I’m in the library.
    My eyes have been bothering me terribly up here. No Endo, or Optho YIKES.
    I hope you are all well. I only am able to stay on the computer
    fo 30 minutes, people are waiting to use it. So I hope I get my
    things before wednesday so I can join chat!.
    The best to you all.

    Love, Shannon

    Hi!

    Thanks for the input about the chemosis. I guess I was wondering if it’s a classic sign of TED or, if others had had it prior to TED. I know that it’s some type of thickening of the conjunctiva, but don’t know exactly what causes it. I also have little red bumps on the inner white (cornea?) of the same eye that itch like the dickens, thus why the 2 drs are saying allergies (keeping my toes crossed!). I just gave the 1-800-THYROID a call today and asked them to send me out a list of opthomologists who specialize in Graves’. I thought about calling around or asking my endo for a referral, but I don’t even trust THAT!! Know what you mean about that part!!

    Thanks!
    Kathleen

    PS…MOM…mine is like yours… a clear jelly that looks like a contact lens that won’t wipe out with a kleenex.That’s the only thing I know about it!
