AREDS2
I have been treated for wet macular degeneration in my right eye for approx 4years initially with Lucentis injections every month & for the last 12months Eylea injections every 12 weeks. I realise there is no cure for this but am seeking advise for taking an ARED2 formula to help prevent the same damage

Trying to keep positive, how is it possible?
Hello everyone, As you can see, I gave myself a number, which with hindsight rather makes me look as if I came from a concentration camp! Wish that I had chosen a username instead. I was diagnosed with dry AMD, around last October, 2017. I was shocked to the core because I was not aware of any visual

Cystic acne caused by levothyroxine
New here, so please forgive me if there are questions for this already. Does levitation cause terrible cystic acne for anyone. Tried generic, synthroid and the nature's. All cause me horrible acne. Any remedy?

Facial Acne after B12 Loading Doses - Help!
Hi, after getting aB12 result of 145 (180-914) back in April I finally got my loading doses, the fifth and final one of which was on Friday last week.

Wet macular degeneration and blood thinners
Has anyone been diagnosed with wet macular degeneration after being given Clopidogrel or other blood thinners. Have seen some posts about it on a USA sites but nothing on UK sites. I find the second round of eye injections very painful and distressing. Dreading the next one, feel really shook up for

Annoying Cystic Acne
I have had cystic acne since the birth of my daughter, almost 10 years ago. I'm not sure if it has something to do with hormones or not. I get this type of acne mostly on my face.. and when I get it cleaned and all the infection out, it leaves a "sac-like" area of where the cystic acne is. These places

Anybody here with Central Retinal vein occlusion CVRO

BUT - I was unable to have another injection for 9 weeks and by that time my vision was VERY bad with quite severe

Possible misdiagnosed Macular Degeneration at 17 years old?
4 years ago, when I was 17, my vision got drastically worse and an opthalmologist told me I’ve got macular degeneration (my mom had it). I was also told that your condition cannot improve, you can only control it after it gets diagnosed. I got some meds prescribed, which, as an irresponsible teeen,

Severe macular oedema
A few months ago, I thought that I needed new spectacles so I went to an optometrist who immediately referred me to an ophthalmologist telling me that I had retinal bleeding in the right eye. The opthamologist diagnosed me to have a macular oedema consequent upon a retinal vein blockage and gave me

Road to recovery
Hi All, I've been low on iron and B12 due to a vegan-ish diet for the past few years - I guess you can say I was somewhat malnourished. I've been suffering from adult acne for the past 8 years on my scalp and face. When I started to take b12/iron/folate I was improving very well without too many issues

Tips for newcomers please
As a newly diagnosed sufferer of the wet version of age-related macular degeneration I am now being injected monthly in both eyes with a loading dose for the next three months. May I ask if between injections I can safely use moisturising eye drops ? Is there anything I can do the ease the discomfort

What’s causing spots on my chin?
Is it hormones? It’s mainly around the middle of my cycle but can happen at any point as well. I’ll have a breakout around and on my chin despite eating so healthy and I drink a lot of water a day. Are spots in this area hormonal or to do with gynaecological problems such as endo? I feel like I’

Hypothyroidism and Acne
