Mysterious Eye

It started out like a normal day. I got up exhausted this morning from working out and drinking two glasses of wine yesterday evening. Went to work. Did pretty much nothing. I did say it was a normal day right? LOL. Didn't bring lunch so the hubby came by and got S and I some chinese. I had shrimp and broccoli with white rice. We were done for the day so I headed on home. Walked to my bus stop to catch the commuter bus. I had a minute to spare before the bus came to my pickup so I felt good. Usually I'm running for dear life to catch the thing. I get on and take my regular seat on the bus. Slap on my iPod and shut my eyes for my evening nap. It's about an hour and 45 minute total ride home. That's including the 15 minutes it takes me to get to my home from where my vehicle is parked. You can see I can get some pretty good sleep in. I dozed off at I think around the 5 stop. That's faster than normal. I usually don't fall asleep until we hit the Maryland line. Anywho. I'm chillin, listen to my music and all of a sudden I am awakened to an unbearable itch to the eyes. Itchy throat, nose and ears also. I rub them and blink them really really hard so I wouldn't rub anymore. We were almost to the drop off so I shut my eyes until I got there. I noticed the vision was obstructed just a tad in the left eye. Still not thinking much of it. Chucked it up to the windows being fogged. I walk to my car and pull down the drivers mirror. I turned on my poor excuse for an overhead light and instantly developed the chill bumps. Ewwww. My eye was swollen beyond belief. (I'm getting the chills just reliving it in my head) I made it home without incidence and took a benadryl just in case it was a reaction to the shrimp I had earlier. Hopped in the shower and washed my soon to be dreads. Yeah baby. They are workin' it. Ok. I got off track for a bit. I took a picture before and after the shower. It looks different to me. Looks as if the swelling has traveled down towards my cheek. I have never been to the hospital and I'm thinking I won't start tonight. It's hurting a bit now probably from the swelling. My friend keeps emailing me to tell me to go to the hospital. Now, my guess is it's something on that commuter bus. I ask myself. How often do they clean it? I'm not going to push it and say a thorough cleaning but enough so that a person won't wake up with a crater on her eye. I went to WedMd to see if I could get an idea but the list of symptoms brought up too many similar diagnoses to narrow it down to what it could possibly be. So I will have to wait until tomorrow to find out. I think it's trying to decrease in size but I will update.

It's snowing and I don't like snow so I won't be posting too much on that subject.
