Very short update because I can't stand to be in front of a CRT for more than a few minutes. Five days in now, and I still can't tolerate bright light. I'm OK as long as I stay in a dark or dimly lit room. As soon as I come back into normal illumination, the clock starts ticking, and I have at most about a half hour before I have to retreat to the dark again. My doctor has me on Demerol and Vistaril; I'm not convinced it's noticeably helping. It certainly doesn't stop the skullsplitting headaches. The good news is at least I'm no longer nauseous, but that's small consolation when I basically can't DO anything.
