    Default I might have Wegeners or not...

    Hi Every one, my name is Karina, I live in London where is spring finally!

    I have been writing this over and over because I cannot understand why my Doc think I might have Wegeners but I would appreciate if someone have a similar experience than mine and can share it with me so I can have some perspective.

    In Jun/Jul last year I started having problems with my left eye after an incident in the garden with dirty water. I had a mild infection, I took cream, drops and antibiotic pills but my eye did not get better. the GP thought I might have an allergic reaction (In one eye) The list of drops and theories was long and scary (at some point I though that I was losing it). This happen at the same time with other issues like a cough and a lung infection. I took again antibiotics and antihistamine, the infection and the cough went a way but the eye grow increasingly bad.

    I started to have pain next to the eye (like muscular pain). it took me three ophthalmologist (I am not taking into consideration the number of time I went to the emergency and the GP) to find that I had a blockage in the tear duct but in the scam the shape the sac has was funny so they thought I might have a tumor. I was lucky that I did not have a tumor, but I had a mass so they did a biopsy that came inconclusive but the clean the tear duct and put a tube.

    Now, I have a very nice, clean an wonderful eye but I still have pain under the eye and I think I have the same pain in the other eye... but not as strong.

    So the Ophthalmologist refer me to a ENT (just to keep my sinus under control) and the rheumatologist...

    I have a few options. One is wait and see. The second is to go to a regular rheumatologist and the third is going to the ENT because I always has running nose and see what she thinks...

    with your expirience, my story resonate as Wegeners or not and what will you do?

    Thanks for the help.
