I'm feeling lazy so I'ma just post the email chat I've been having with my doctor. I'm sure I explained what these new pills I got "Methozolamide" do already on a previous page.
Me-
Hello again, Dr. Chang!
Just Emailing to report that our insurance is being slower than our research on glaucoma. We still haven't found a doctor nearby to take our insurance and take my pressure test so that I can return to you with the results.
Dr. Chang-
Hi Rigel - you need a pressure check ASAP. If you can't find anyone you probably ought to come back to Bascom. We have offices in Plantation and West Palm Beach and I can arrange to have you see one of my colleagues there. Let me know what's easier.
Me-
Hello once again, doctor. My mom just told me that I've got an appointment to check the eye-pressure tomorrow. Hopefully these pills have been doing a good job.
Dr. Chang-
Please let me know what your pressures are once you have them measured. Thanks.
Me-
It appears to me that these pills deprived me of my delicious soda for nothing. I followed your instruction of not taking Pilocarpine for 24 hours before checking the pressure, and it shot up to 43 and 39, I forgot for which eyes, though. Make a guess, take your pick, I don't know. Do we need to move up to the stronger pills? Should I just stop the methozolamide since it doesn't seem to have done anything for my pressure? I made sure to take a dose of Pilocarpine as soon as I got home, because that kind of pressure is just absurd.
So again, do I continue the methozolamide, or stop taking it?
I'm currently waiting on a response. I couldn't drink soda for 2 weeks for seemingly nothing, and now I'm sad because soda is love, soda is life. Not to mention the head rushes after standing up too fast, and the numbing fingers.
