Especially when it gets needle sharp. Then you have to be careful as to 
how you shape it with your tongue.

It usually doesn't last long, but thanks - usually the next day she's 
just fine, but eating "easier" foods for a few days.  It's just so random 
as to when it hits - we can't seem to find a cause, and that's a bit 
frustrating.

Yuck.  Glad to hear you're almost over it.  Got my allergy shot 
yesterday, so I'm feeling the effects of that today, but oddly I've been 
having that vision problem again.  Time to make an appointment, I guess.

Hmm! I hope it doesn't worry her too much.

vision problem? Sorry I can't remember what it was. Tell Dr Stevie, in strictest
confidence of course :P

At least I don't have to explain it or apologise :)

Not too much, if it worried her more, she'd probably be more proactive 
about doing more about it.  That said, I'm insisting on another doctor's 
visit...

Last couple of days, I've just had blurred vision.  Not really bad, but 
it has been hard to focus on my laptop screen and computer display at 
home.

LOL, true, but I think you're buying the first round if we manage to get 
over there. ;-)

You could be reaching that age ;)

Naturally, as long as you buy the last round.

At 38, I'd hope that's not "that age". ;-)
