I have high myopia (-9), but the doctor isn't sure what caused the CNV (hence idiopathic diagnosis.) We caught it extremely fast, as I was already booked into see a specialist for a cataract in my

DHEA (& Cortisol)
Hello, I received these results today. I would appreciate it so much if someone could give me a steer on the DHEA aspect. I understand cortisol very well and clearly I have some form of adrenal insufficiency. I have 2 questions - 1. Do you think I need hydrocortisone from these results or can I

The end of the road for my brother
last week I sat holding my 57 year old brother’s hand whilst he passed away from a complication due to alcoholic liver disease. I cared for him for 3 years and it was very hard. Just wanted to say thanks as this site has been useful when I was doing research re transplants.

Cataract surgery and recovery
I had cataract surgery on my right eye. The eye has been constantly watering - is that normal? I'm applying 3 different eye drops - one every 2 hours - throughout the day. Also how soon after surgery were you able to start seeing properly without any issues? I've got scleritis in the same eye and hoping

Advice please - post cataract surgery
Good morning all. I finally had surgery for my angle closure glaucoma on Friday. They opted to simply do cataract surgery and not GSL plus cataract, as they intended. So I was assuming that all would recover quickly. However whilst my vision was blurry post op I could tell that my field of vision had

Spider nevi central spot?
Hi, As per previous posts I'm anxious about my liver, with good cause as a previous heavy drinker (50 units a week , much reduced last few years). A couple of years ago I had a liver MRI -fine. So my question - I've noticed some red veins at bottom of nose. Are these always spider nevi? I can't see

Anti-Malaria Drugs Treat PD?
I am in a new rabbit hole. Somebody over on FB posted that their dad with PD took Ivermectin every day for 8 months and his PD is gone. He is not on no drugs and no supplements. Like all of us, I am vulnerable to these type of grand claims. So I started investigating Ivermectin and PD and so far I

Cirrhosis/Sprionolactone/testosterone
I know. Bit of an odd one!!! Hi all! I’d just be interested to know if anyone has had any (male) hormone issues surrounding cirrhosis and/or the use of Spironolactone. Or perhaps it’s just me?! About a month before diagnosis, (I couldn’t see them because of my swollen belly), It felt like my testicles

Helpful article for those who love someone who is dying of alcoholic liver disease
Hello, everyone — This article might be helpful for anyone who is watching a loved one die from alcohol addiction disease, and it’s subsequent effect on the liver. It’s stunningly honest and frank, and faces head-on some issues that are difficult to talk about. I hope it might give support and a feeling

Can Steroid eye drops have an effect?
Had my second cataract operation 2 weeks ago and the after care is steroid eye drops 4 times a day for 4 weeks. After I put them in I can taste it in my throat after a while - so obviously goes down into my stomach I suppose. At the moment currently slow tapering from 9 to 8.5 but feeling quite tired
