My apologies

[Sk45]

I kind of forgot to mention that I had retinopathy issues and I lost the sight on my right eye and it's a miracle according to doctors that my left eye is still functioning despite extensive damage inside. I'm not sharing this to gain sympathy, but I thought I should share. Thank you.

When was your last appointment with the retina specialist?

[Sage_1 in reply to Activity2004]

August. I see them every 6 months.

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to Sage_1]

I go to one every 6 months, as well. I need to go to mine in January next year.

[Sage_1 in reply to Activity2004]

Lol mine is in February. If you don't mind me asking what do they check for ?

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to Sage_1]

Diabetic retinopathy. In the early stages.

[Sage_1 in reply to Activity2004]

Mmmm.... Good still early stages. Pls take care of it.

I do! I've been told that it's stayed the same for some time now. I'm 36 yrs. old, but the Retina Specialist says that I could be a diabetic that has had diabetes for 10 years! I've had diabetes for most of my life.

Well that's the trick , always make it remains same and no new blood vessels. No glaucoma issues I hope.

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to Sage_1]

No, not that.
