[Dailydrool] Drool rules

[Dale Rutz]

Hi all, it's a much relieved momPerson here,


First off drool to all in the path of Sandy, may it be weaker and faster than 
they thought.

Second off I did NOT waste my money today at the eye Dr.  And LuLu is going to 
be just fine.  Thanks to DROOLERS who told me to go to the eye Dr at the first 
hint something was wrong.  Something was wrong.  And, if left untreated, it 
would have resulted in a loss of vision.  The doctor wrote:

"The issue in LuLu's eye is due to keratoconjunctivitus sicca (KCS).  When 
inadequate level of tears are present the eye produces a thick mucous.  The lack 
of tear production not only leads to mucous production but also scarring and 
pigmentation of the  surface of the eye.  

They prescribed a drop which should stimulate tear production by repressing an 
autoimune response which is inhibiting tear production and they say within a few 
weeks she should be more comfortable and symptom free.  They do say she'll 
probably need drops the rest of her life but they aren't expensive, $70 for a 
bottle which should last the year.

So thanks Droolers for the good advice.  LuLu gets to be a lot more comfortable 
and doesn't have her vision degrade.  And .... it cost next to nothing.  You 
guys are the best!
