Oh man. I'm so sorry! If it helps, I've been symptom-free since writing this! I hope yours gets under control soon, too.

That's great to hear! This recent attack was after a decade of being symptom-free -- such a bizarre chronic health issue. Your line about "Never Gonna Give You Up" made me laugh so hard. Fact! Thank you.

Ugh. That must have been an unpleasant surprise! A decade seems pretty good though! Crossing my fingers for you it passes soon!

Sorry for the eye issue (have my own, so understand somewhat), but putting your energy into this comic was great. Do you know about the graphic medicine folks? https://www.graphicmedicine.org/

Ugh. I'm so sorry! Eye stuff is the worst! I've seen the #graphicmedicine hashtag, but I'll check out the link. Thanks!

I came to read because I once had uvulitis and it was not a fun time...then realised I'd mis-read and you have something even more sucky. Glad I did click though because I love your comics. May your eyeball be healed soon.....and may you never discover what uvulitis is (it was gag-tastic).

I have an eye thing going on, too, and I agree that statistics are pretty scary. I wasn't aware of uveitis. I'm so sorry! Really interesting to see the comic explanation. I hope this flare passes quickly!
