If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

Kev,
I have had Iritis many times and it is no fun is it? talk about feeling like someone threw sand in your eyes.
Can I ask do you know why your Dr. is havig you do drops another 6 weeks instead of injections? just wondering, yea the shots are for the birds but my Doc always wants to find the quickest way possible to stamp it out.
I hope they clear up soon and you feel better.
Hugs,
Lisa

Hi Lisa,
I'm not sure to honest maybe because its in both eyes.
But could be because of the risk of me possibly having Glaucoma.And of course I'm an Insulin dependant Diabetic.

Hope the drop kick your iritis into touch Kevin. Is there anything you can do to - I don't know how to put it - err fend off the glaucoma or is it something that becomes inevitable? If that makes sense. Good luck back on the Enbrel. Hope you get some relief soon, I really do 
KickAS and help others do the same!

Thanks Tink
Glaucoma is not inevitable but I am at a high risk because my mother had it really bad.With luck they will find I'm only border line and if it does develop further they can catch it in time and treat it to slow it down.
