My Story

Being diagnosed with multiple conditions is not a walk in the park.

Chronic dry eye & other conditions

The following is only a short list of the diagnosis I can remember being diagnosed with, contrition: migraines, depression, tachycardia, panic attacks, bipolar, Saturday night palsy, psoriatic arthritis, psoriasis, dry eye syndrome, allergies, periodontal, endometriosis.

Mulitple conditions means multiple medications

Social impact of dry eye

I have started this journey of healthy living in my teams when I had my first surgery. The looks and the comments and the reactions of others do not matter to me.

My family is the ones it bothers, which upsets me most.

It’s all most as if your medical story is not public knowledge then you do not matter. It should not be that way.
