I'm sorry that the problem with your eye had not cleared up. I guess you know that Aciclovir is a potent anti-viral and added to your other meds it just about covers you against everything imaginable.

All the best

Crumbs..... poor you.
Acyclovir 3 times a day for a YEAR???? I was on that for shingles for, oh, maybe 5 days or a week and it really knocked me out.
Good luck with it.
IS the doxycyclin also a tablet (rather than eye drops?)
If so, at least you shouldn't get malaria.....!!!!
Hope the eye problems all clear up soon.
How long is it now you've had a abndage lens for? - never had one, nor any idea it was lidely after a graft.

Doxycycling is a tablet too. I have had my bandage lens in since the day of the operation - 19th January!!!
