Last Friday, Nov 4, I had eye surgery. This was an epiretinal membrane removal. It had become wrinkled, which was distorting the vision. I also had a huge floater in the middle of my vision. As an outpatient under light anesthesia I had it removed. My recovery has not been swift, with much swelling and pain last night and this morning. I saw the doctor who prescribed some drops to reduce the pressure in my eye. They were magic, and i can see again. Not well, but it will slowly get better.
Next week I am getting a port placed for stem cell collection. I will be going in every day next week for a couple hours as part of the process.
Oh, forgot to mention that a pre surgery blood draw last week showed hematocrit down one point. I hope that was just within the margin of error for the test.
