Year 1 finished

I was supposed to of had a meeting with the mavenclad nurse on Monday but she couldn't make it so that is going to be rescheduled. Saw my neurologist today and got my blood work done. I had a problem with my vision over the weekend and my neurologist feels that it is from when I had the flare up a year and a half ago when I had the optic neuritis. It was crazy I was walking rue and when I came back in the water looked a really light green and when I looked in the mirror my eyes where yellow not just the white but my eye lids and the skin below. After 10 minutes I wasn't seeing the green water or yellow any more. I was told by my neurologist to get more rest. When I wear my sunglasses that doesn't happen. She is sure that the mavenclad didn't have anything to do with this. That it's just from the optic nerve damage. Enough of that. I am feeling good and not having any other problems. In about 4 months I will get more blood work done and I will see my neurologist in 6 months. I will continue to to keep you all informed of how I am doing. Until next till I will be walking rue and training her. And work on my crochet projects which I have 3 going on right now. You all take care and a pray that everyone is doing well

Those are unusual symptoms aren't they? I've had color changes before never connected them to this disease process. I always thought It was a medication reaction. I went,last week and had a thorough eye exam with the photos and all done. I wanted a good baseline for any future eye changes. For now at least they are healthy and my new glasses make a difference.

I'm learning so much from everyone's comments and it's interesting how everyone is affected differently. Hope your visit with the mavenclad nurse goes well.

Even after experiencing optic neuritis, I would think this experience would be a little unnerving, but I'm glad your neurologist explained what was going on. I hope this is the only episode. Thanks for you updates and your prayers. I'm so grateful for both.

I'm looking forward to seeing your next project!

It was scary and I was getting read to go to the hospital. Thank you and I have enjoyed posting my experiences so far here and will continue to give updates as thing move forward. I am so excited about my projects. After I get a couple of more blankets done and a few more prayer shawls I will start working on scarfs and hats for homeless veterans.

Thank you. I am trying to wear my sunglasses but I forget to get them. I can't see without my glasses so I have wear ones that clip on my glasses. I am doing my best to keep my vision protected. I am home alone most of the time and I need to be able to take care of things

Glad that your neuro explained your eye issues and that you have a solution to mitigate it by wearing sunglasses, Turtlepie Keep Smiling :-D
