Not Pink Eye again!! please!

[luvwinnie]

I had bacterial conjunctivitis about 5 weeks ago and it seems like I'm getting it again...red corners, blood shot eye, tearing and stickiness when I got up today. I think I'll see my EYE dr. this time. I'm on immunosuppressants for psoriatic arthritis...

Make sure you change your towels frequently, maybe not share them with anyone else in your household. Since you are immunosuppressed you may be more susceptible to picking things up than most people are. Also, good handwashing and try to be aware of keeping your hands away from your face and eyes. Good luck!

Yep, being very careful. I was last time too! Well, it could be a result of my actual disease also:


In addition to the inflamed, scaly skin that's typical of psoriasis, people with psoriatic arthritis have swollen, painful joints — especially in their fingers and toes — and pitted, discolored nails. They may also develop inflammatory eye conditions such as conjunctivitis.
