(ReclaimingAmerica.net) – After sitting behind the GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump during a rally in Arizona, several rallygoers revealed they had a mysterious eye injury and ended up needing medical attention for “unbearable” pain.
See the tweet below.
According to a local source, Mayra Rodriguez was among Trump’s supporters and was seated behind him on the right side of the stage at Ronstadt Music Hall in Tucson.
Rodriguez said she noticed her eyes starting to bother her as she left the venue after Trump’s nearly 80-minute speech.
“As soon as we left and we stepped outside, my eyes were burning,” Rodriguez, a former Planned Parenthood director turned whistleblower and Republican figure, said.
She thought it was just allergies, so she got in her car and drove home to Phoenix for the 90-minute drive. But during the drive, the irritation got so bad that she had to go to the emergency room.
When she arrived at the hospital, the “triage nurse to the PA [Physicians Assistant]” asked if she had been “sprayed with something,” Rodriguez explained.
“‘Are you sure you didn’t get sprayed with something? Your symptoms look like you got sprayed with something,’” she said the ER staff asked. Her condition worsened the next day.
“I can’t see anything when I try to open my eyes. I see a bright light,” the supporter explained. “It hurts, it hurts a lot to open my eyes. I have this cold cloth I put on and take off constantly. It’s horrible.”
Though doctors could not determine what caused the injury, one doctor told Rodriguez that the venue’s lights were not to blame.
Moreover, it was reported that Rodriguez was “nearly blind ” by Friday. Luckily, her vision had started to improve by Tuesday.
Two siblings, who wished to remain anonymous, said they sat next to the woman and experienced similar symptoms.
“It kept getting worse and worse,” the sister stated. “My eyes were watering a lot, my nose started running then I started feeling my face get really flushed and my neck felt like it was on fire and it just progressed from there.”
“It was all focused on my eyes, my eyes were red like hell you know, it’s unbearable. I couldn’t handle it,” the brother asserted said.
In addition, the Secret Service said it was unaware of any issue with rally attendees but assured Trump that there was no threat.
