Things have been calm. Except for that thumb/wrist pain that resolved after a couple days, C hasn't had any issues. No GI issues and pt has been going really well. Still doing EN, now 5 nights a week at 4 cartons a night.
He purchased a new video game a couple days ago and has spent most of his free time playing. This is the second new game in a month and both times after the first day his eyes get red. Last time he convinced me it wasn't his episcleritis flaring because it wasnt the normal flare spots(outside corners of the eyes for him). This time it is almost all of both eyes, one worse than the other. I'm going to call this morning to get him in with ophthalmologist.
The GI nurse is supposed to be calling with follow up colonoscopy from February hospital stay. GI wants to do colonoscopy to compare to last year's then if he can't get through IC valve an MRE will be scheduled to get better look and compare to CT done in Feb of this year.
So does episcleritis always run concurrently with active disease? It has for C, first the episcleritis shows up then shortly afterward GI symptoms. But this time both incidents of red eye have coincided with over playing of a new vid game.
