Hello everyone,
About 18 months ago, out of the blue, I had a dull throbbing pain in my right eye. I went to the eye doctor thinking it maybe time for glasses, he said that I could use a mild correction, but wasn't really necessary.
I did not pursue it as conincedentally the pain in my eye had left as sudden as it had appeared? I did not think about it until a week ago..when it came back,exactly the same unbearable pain that lasts 5min to 30 min intermittently. The last two nights I have been awoken to throbbing pain at 2 am. I have been able to controll this with 2 tylenol tabs which enables me to get back to sleep.
My question is from your experiences, are these cycles predictable? I mean after this cycle can I look forward to 18 months of normal living again?
Thank You in advance, Scott
