For months now, maybe even close to a year (could be longer then that) my bottom eyelid swells up. I can feel it coming about and then BAM, my entire eyelid is huge. It gets red and big. Lasts for a few hours and then slowly goes back to normal.

Anyone have any idea what this may be?

Have you talked to your doctor?

[rxnarunner]

No of course not, that would be way to easy LOL.

Thought id throw the question out there first before I spend money on a copay and missing time from work.

However, I will soon if it doesn't stop.

think about it this way, there's a doctor who'll most likely know exactly what to do. Then there's a world full of random people who could have you end up paying twice your copay on fake remedies. Loly

I wouldn't actually pay someone for a fake remedy.

But thanks for the response

Have you considered it being an allergy? Makeup (if you're female), eye drops, contacts, smoke, food. A number of things could be a trigger. But the only sure fire way to know what it is and how to fix it is to go to an eye doctor. Co-pays are relatively inexpensive if you have insurance. And eye exams are as well. A lot of vision clinics have weekend/later hours as well, so hopefully you wouldn't have to miss work.

I've thought of that. Ill eventually go to the doctor. Lord help me :) hate docs. But I'm a grown up I have to go aahhhh

No one really LIKES to go to the doctor. Waiting will only make the issue worse. Good luck.
