I was thinking some kind of allergy also. Sometimes its not an allergy per se but a sensitivity. 
Anyway, I would quit using that stuff as well. 
 
I also recall reading over time some articles and opinions on how an auto immune response is like an allergy response to the body. And how one can trigger or play into the other. So if you are TM as a result of an auto immune thing that maybe some allergies or sensitivities have reared their ugly head. I also know that some folks with serious allergies say that an allergy attack can bring on an increase in their TM or MS symptoms.  A chicken/egg thing.
 
So even if these creams and stuff were okay for you before your TM maybe now they are not. 
If your eyes continue to bother you I would go to the doctor. 
 
I would also ask my  neuro about some sleep Rx.  There are some pretty good ones out there now and you should be able to get some samples to try.  Between the tv commercials and the print ads the drug companies want us all to sleep well.  Most doctors have samples.

Hi Krissy,
 
I'm definitely NOT  an expert here.  However, the first thing that struck me was the use of eye creams.  I cannot use anything like that around my eyes.  Some eye creams I think can cause swelling etc around the  eyes.  Maybe you have some sort of eye infection. I would be off to the family doctor right away if I were you.
 Also the activities surrounding Christmas and New Year's season have made me very tired myself.

Subject: [TMIC] ladies I need help

the past 2 weeks, I have seen my eyes getting progressively worse....watery, VERY red and tired looking,  sometimes they sting a little...bags underneath!! , so bad they look like elephants knees. And I am not kidding! This has only been like the past few weeks I have seen this get worse and worse... Now, I am not sure if it is a reaction to all the eye creams I have been trying, or lack of sleep or too much sleep..I don't know. I go to sleep about 12am or so....I do toss and turn at night , switching positions for my legs and rear end numbness...but I seem to *sleep* a good 8 hours...but I feel I could still sleep more...I am not refreshed waking up either.­ I feel like I am suddenly starting to look very old and tired...I am 45 and a few weeks ago I looked smooth and rested :(
help?
