Kicked in the Balls*

I was at Combat Cards and my vision went kablooey. I was going to try to tough it out but Doc arrived and I logged off and went to lie down with my eyes closed and have a think. It could be the m.s., as vision problems are common. I didn't think it was an eyeball problem. It might well be a migraine caused by all the intense flashes, lack of sleep, etc. I've had just one that affected my vision, but my brother suffered enormously from migraines that affected his vision, sometimes brought on by the intense light/shadow/light/shadow of driving down a treed Aussie road in bright sun (but he has suffered less as he has grown older).

Dunno yet if I'll go to the doctor as I wouldn't be able to afford the tests he'd want, let alone any treatment (which there probably is none of anyway). When I first got m.s. my vision went double for a month or two, and I had all kinds of neurologists then and they did nothing. It was a very hard time, and I said if it ever happened again it would be game over.

Update: I think it was just a migraine effect, and I'm nearly back to (ab)normal.
