We just returned from visit #6 with my retinal surgeon. Got a good report. Pain is so low that I have actually forgotten to take pain pills for a couple of days. I have a green light to return to normal activities, such as exercise. In six weeks, I have another visit with him and a new guy on the scene -- a corneal specialist. The thought is that I'll be going back under the knife sometime in April for what we think will be a corneal transplant.
