Extremely high eye pressure while sleeping.
Hi, I have been diagnosed with glaucoma for about 12 years now and I also have uveitis since I was 2 years old. The last 4/5 years the main focus has been managing glaucoma as my uveitis is in remission. Recently I managed to get self monitoring eye pressure machine from Icare so I can keep track of

Not posted for a while, hope everyone is managing their lupus symptoms as best they can. I did think that using 50spf sun screen and taking hydroxychloroquine would keep my skin lupus at bay. However, I'm beginning to realise it is not just the sun and artificial light that my skin is sensitive to.

Pegasys side effects
I was switched from 500 Hydroxyurea/day to 90mg Pegasys every two weeks. The pain in hips and thighs is substantial - headache also, but not as bothersome as the muscle pain. Has anyone else experience this on Pegasys. Also, has anyone tried CoQ10 for muscle pain and has it work? Thanks

First Injection of Pegasys
I FINALLY got approved for Pegasys, and am to pick it up at the pharmacy by Wednesday. My question is does the first injection happen in the Drs. office, or at home?? Were you given physical instructions for how to give the injection? I have written instructions that were sent to me with the approval

Coffee-drinker?
I've had glaucoma since 1988, many ops and drops. Have noticed that my eyes get very misty from time to time, which is a pain when you are having tests to get your driving licence back etc. Thought, blood sugar? That's all I need... Nope. Turns out it's COFFEE that's affecting me! No coffee, no

3 years Runniversary
A reminder popped up in my calendar - today is 3 years since those first intrepid steps for C25K Since then I've run more than 1,000 km. Longest run was 10k (if you look at the medal I got from the organisers, but both Garmin and NRC have me slightly less as I was so carried away I forgot to press

Diabetic Macular Ischemia
hi all just wondering if anyone has had ischemia in their good eye it looks like that is what I have had for a while but now it’s much worse and just wondered if anyone has been told they had it in both eyes and therefore the eye injections are not working. I can’t have steroids as I am a steroid responder
