1 I issue a fatwa on your illness. Get better soon, buddy.

2 Have you tried getting a really hot washrag and resting it over your eye(s). Just run hot water(really hot) on the washrag and fold it up. Carefully hold on your eye until it cools off the refold to find another warm spot. Might help you get over it faster along with the eye drops or salve from the Dr. This has helped me in the past. Get better soon.

3 If thine eye offends thee...

4 Oh one other thing. We had guy in the office one time with pinkeye. It just would not clear up. Dr sent him on to the the opthamologist (spelling?). Turns out it was a virus not a bacteria. Not very common though. They put some kind of drops in his eye to diagnose it. Not sure how they treated it. If that don't start to clear up in another day or two you might want to call the Dr. back. I usually start getting better on about the second day after starting the medication. Change or wash your pillowcase daily until you are better as well. Ugh, I sound like my grandmother.

5 Never dealt with this type of thing, but I know that the worst stuff is stuff that happens to your head. Get well soon. PS In the Addams' Family Files under It Could Be Worse: It could be your vacation time getting wrecked by being sick.

6 Put a wet tea bag on that eye, Rusty. Don't know if that is the right old wives tale for pinkeye or not but it'll sure make people notice you.
