Oh thank you all so much for your replies. I am in California, and seeing an Endo. He mentioned sending me to the eye doc, because last month I developed a cyst on my right bottom eye lid. Freaked me out!!! So go tomorrow for my once a month (so far) exam. He takes labs everytime the Friday before to check my Thyroid and other stuff. I developed this skin thing during this last month inbetween visits. The pharmacist recommended Amlactin lotion and it has helped some. You have to ask for it behind the counter but don’t need a scrip for it. She also recommended Aveeno or Lubaderm. My Endo had given me 5 days of eyedrops with an antibiotic and steriod in it, but thats it so far. As far as insurance goes I recently lost my job so it has been all cash and quite expensive for the visits but cheap for the Ptu and atenolol. I was allergic to the meta. I guess the eye specialist will break the bank! LOL So will let you all know how it is going. Thanks again for your replies. Its nice to have you all to talk with. I am still trying to get my head around all of this. My husband and I are caregivers for his elderly parents and don’t have much time for ourselves. My Father in law has been in the hospital because of a bad fall that nearly killed him. We are on the other side of that now and so I can focus a little more on my own health. Glad I can come here.
