(For a change.) I&#8217;ve been reading Arthur Conan Doyle this weekend, so let&#8217;s think of this as an Adventure for the time being.<\/p>\n<p>The news is that I may or may not have developed a tear in the retina of my right eye. This being the case, one way or another life around here for the next week is about to get lively.<\/p>\n<p>Some of you will have noted from previous posts over this year that I&#8217;ve had an ongoing problem with the retina in my left eye. This kind of thing is no surprise with someone who&#8217;s (a) over 60 and (b) very very nearsighted: the shape of the eyeball means the retina&#8217;s more likely to have trouble staying in place.<\/p>\n<p>Well, this m<span class=\"text_exposed_show\">orning I woke up with a shadow in my <em>right<\/em> eye that has no business being there. It&#8217;s not a floater (of which I have plenty). This thing is holding still. (Cue irate fist-shaking at unresponsive ceiling. &#8220;THIS IS THE *GOOD(ish)* EYE, DAMMIT!!&#8221;)<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"text_exposed_show\">\n<p>Now, this being rural Ireland and relatively late on a Sunday, there is not a <em>damn<\/em> thing I can do that will do any good until tomorrow. I get to hold still until tomorrow morning and call my retinologist in Dublin first thing.<\/p>\n<p>This is all insanely annoying because I&#8217;m presently doing the last work on INTERIM ERRANTRY 2, the completed version of which is supposed to launch tomorrow in the Ebooks Direct store to coincide with <a class=\"_58cn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/hashtag\/cybermonday?source=feed_text&amp;story_id=10153915961171237\" data-ft=\"{&quot;tn&quot;:&quot;*N&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:104}\"><span class=\"_5afx\"><span class=\"_58cl _5afz\">#<\/span><span class=\"_58cm\">CyberMonday<\/span><\/span><\/a>. (And I&#8217;m still doing the work: sitting here and twitching isn&#8217;t going to help anything.)<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll see how that goes. But some folks have said they wish they could help. If you&#8217;d like to, then the best thing you can do right now is pop over to Ebooks Direct and buy some ebook that you like the look of&#8230; as with one thing and another, this is going to get to be an expensive week.<\/p>\n<p>I think I may also have committed to livetweet the Journey To The Eye Doctor. (rolls eyes at self) (gingerly) My eye lady has an office full of nifty equipment, and I bet I can get her to at least give me a .jpg of the back of my retina to share with everybody.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, let&#8217;s all cross our fingers. It might just be something transient and not so bad as a tear. But if it *is* just a tear, there are ways to mend it that are actually office procedures these days. We&#8217;ll see how it goes&#8230;\u00a0 Starting tomorrow morning, I&#8217;ll update this post as we go along. But for the time being I may as well get back to work.<\/p>\n<p>(Oh, and if you&#8217;re interested in buying anything, <a href=\"http:\/\/ebooksdirect.co\/pages\/our-2016-black-friday-cyber-monday-sale-is-on\" target=\"_blank\">here&#8217;s the store&#8217;s sale page&#8217;s URL.<\/a> The entire store inventory will appear at the bottom of it: give it a moment to load and then scroll down.

So today&#8217;s teaching moment is: even if you are a health care professional (or former one) and expert at Googling For Symptoms, don&#8217;t be so sure you know what&#8217;s going on. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-offset-key=\"80kbb-0-0\" data-editor=\"2k8pk\" data-block=\"true\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"80kbb-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"80kbb-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-offset-key=\"8mrsv-0-0\" data-editor=\"2k8pk\" data-block=\"true\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"8mrsv-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"8mrsv-0-0\"><span data-text=\"true\">This means that I&#8217;ve dodged this bullet, only to find I&#8217;m standing in front of a bigger, slower one.*<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-offset-key=\"8p4sh-0-0\" data-editor=\"2k8pk\" data-block=\"true\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"8p4sh-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"8p4sh-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-offset-key=\"688v8-0-0\" data-editor=\"2k8pk\" data-block=\"true\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"688v8-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"688v8-0-0\"><span data-text=\"true\">Part 2: What seems to have happened to me is a small transient circulatory blockage in the retina. The signature of this event can be seen as what is called over here a &#8220;cotton wool spot&#8221;. When I scan the pic from the dye photography and post it here later, you&#8217;ll see it quite clearly. (This is why my retinologist was very definite with me that she wanted this test done today: this evidence, she says, would likely have vanished within a few weeks.)<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-offset-key=\"cq3si-0-0\" data-editor=\"2k8pk\" data-block=\"true\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"cq3si-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"cq3si-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-offset-key=\"9geis-0-0\" data-editor=\"2k8pk\" data-block=\"true\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"9geis-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"9geis-0-0\"><span data-text=\"true\">This is a herald of other things that are likely going on elsewhere. So over the next couple of weeks I get to go to my GP here and have a full workup of bloods and various other diagnostic procedures, with an eye to ruling in\/out a complex of possibilities: circulatory system problems, heart problems, incipient diabetes, plaque, sunspots, you name it. (There are way too many possible causes for this event&#8230;) (OKAY, maybe not sunspots.)<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-offset-key=\"bdse3-0-0\" data-editor=\"2k8pk\" data-block=\"true\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"bdse3-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"bdse3-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-offset-key=\"612hc-0-0\" data-editor=\"2k8pk\" data-block=\"true\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"612hc-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"612hc-0-0\"><span data-text=\"true\">There will also need to be a detailed ultrasound of both eyes. Which I get to pay for. (Notwithstanding that the left eye, aka The Bad Wicked Naughty Eye, has been blissfully quiet through all this and is described by the retinologist as &#8220;behaving itself just fine&#8221;.) <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"612hc-0-0\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"612hc-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"612hc-0-0\"><span data-text=\"true\"><span data-offset-key=\"70gm4-0-0\">So I&#8217;ll be leaving the Ebooks Direct store running in sale mode (50% off everything) for a little while.<\/span> Thanks again HUGELY to those who by picking up an ebook or so assisted in the day&#8217;s events.
