Oh yeah -- I got the turkey baster treatment in my ass, too ... But I only got one! Thank goodness! I dunno what was in that syringe but I'm pretty sure it was chemically in the same class as gasoline.

No, they said to just treat the one eye ... No matter ... If I'm not MARKEDLY better by Monday morning I'm going to the ER. And if I get any worse than I am right now (took a pic so I can show ER I'm not just looking for attention) I'm going to the ER. Honestly, if Scott had been home I would have gone to ER this afternoon. But he wasn't and the Urgent Care is like 2-3 blocks from the house. I have NO depth perception right now so I'm not really comfortable driving in traffic right now.
Get the large bottle of old No. 7, you'll be back to whooping ass tomorrow.
Dauymn Girl! Want to say something snarky, but I am the same way (a walking accident waiting to happen). Have the Ol Man take you out for icecream or something.
I think old timers just threw some salt in their eyes 
to clear up infection.
Get well soon
to clear up infection. Get well soon
Keep an eye on it (no pun intended). Bacterial infections that move that fast are not messing around. Any increase in pain, fever, or malaise, get to the ER. They should have kept you in there for an overnight if they had to give you IV or IM antibiotics. Staph doesn't screw around and it can go anywhere. Take your meds they gave you regularly and don't ever skip doses of antibiotics.
I can relate. With Grumpy.I wish I knew! Lol She's been kinda rough on me the last few years -- oh who am I kidding -- I'm a walking trainwreck! Haha! I tell you who I feel bad for -- Grumpy that's who! Bless his heart! I'm pretty sure he's rethought whole "thru sickness and in health" thing SEVERAL times over the years.
If I give you sympathy it might provide a millisecond of feel good. If I give you honesty it'll make you better. You work in the public and handle money. The dirtiest and nastiest thing a person comes into contact with. Google what can found on a dollar. Wasn't long ago that I told a young lady, keep your hands away from your face. She thanked me another day.
I'd feel safer touching my face after cleaning the brooder than touching anything the public uses. I'd smear a cow Patty on my face before touching my face after a public outing. The busy seasons coming, you best get healed and keep your hands off your face.

Ok so an update. This morning I looked (and felt) way worse than yesterday so off to the ER we go. I was not impressed with the PA but ... After poking around a little, she told me to come back if I got worse I might come back -- but she didn't see anything she could do for me. 
Bottom line is I now have a sinus headache on top of my migraine (she had difficulty comprehending that someone other than a professional could tell the difference ), swelling and redness down my cheek under my eye and up to my eyebrow that was not there yesterday, and my eyeball itself is "somewhat" swollen and a horrible sore throat. Like someone else here, she mentioned staph.
So ... Tomorrow I'm off to the PC to find an ENT specialist. Honestly, as much as I do NOT want to do it I think my tonsils may need to come out because all this was precipitated by a bad sore throat, swollen tonsils and lymph glands and a fever and flu-like fatigue Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of this last week. What a mess ...
Y'all keep a decent thought for me. Hopefully another couple days on all these antibiotics will make a difference. I'm gonna go stick an ice pack on my face and take a nap. Whew ... And keep your hands in your pockets and away from your face! (Although I'm starting to think it was my rotten tonsils that started this adventure. Still ... Can't be too careful -- especially if you handle money, like a few of you have mentioned already.
