15. I will, Marthe.

Noticed it yesterday, and it has not worsened, but it has not improved either.

If it worsens at all today, I'll get to the ER...I can be there in about 7 minutes.

I can still see out of it, but there's a huge white shadow moving with my vision, and it's making me panic.

I've been through this shit before, and a shot usually fixes it for awhile.
