scaredycat!
Hi everyone my consultant is wanting me to have a cataract and stent op to bring my pressures down but iam terrified of being awake for any eye op. I actually asked him if he could put me to sleep and do it!!How does anyone get over this fear and anxiety. Have thought of nothing else for weeks. Surely

Dry Eye Masks
Hi, can you use a dry eye mask if you have had both eyes operated with the Preserflo Microshunt. Had my eyes tested at the opticians and they suggested using one. Surely the hospital would have also suggested it? It’s the thought of putting something warm on both eyes and then the instructions to wipe

Unhappy experience with Specsavers
My elderly father visited Specsavers as instructed by the DVLA for his 3 yearly field test (he has glaucoma but this condition has been stable for years); my father is not computer literate and equates the field test equipment as a computer causing a lot of stress. The staff did not inform him he could

Iopidine after SLT
As I am so allergic to most eye drops yesterday I had SLT as the pressure has been going up. I read that after having this you can have a pressure spike and was really worried because after my cataract surgery the pressure went from 20 to34 and I had to take Acetazolamide for two weeks which made me

It's too much. All the medical procedures. Homesick. Getting into hospital on Monday
For my nose not mental health. But it's one hell of a time booking it all, going through all kinds of proffesionals. In Bulgaria something hurts you, you go to doc 1 , they send you to doc 2, they send you to doc 3, they send you to tests. You end up either okay or hospitalised or worse from all those

Concern about getting more Covid-19 vaccines.
I was diagnosed under 2 years ago. I guess I’ve had it since 2007. Just wondering about getting more Covid-19 vaccines. I have believed it is a good idea to get them. But every time I have I get some very odd things I’ve never experienced before. Rash. Sore in my eye. Eye infection. I cut my arm and

Mixed up with recent diagnosis
Hi everyone. It has been so good to read all the different posts about Glaucoma and Glaucoma suspect and interocular eye pressure. I was with private consultant here in Ireland just three days ago who did visual field test and put in the dye etc. to exam my optic nerve. She said optic nerve seemed normal

Eye side effects on biologics for rheumatoid arthritis
Has anyone else has very dry and sore eyes on biologics? Did it get better over time or did you have to stop/ switch to an alternative? I had this with adalimumab (Amgevita) so switched to etanercept (Benepali) but the same thing is happening again. I’m so keen to get better but my eyes are very sore

APs and Fatigue
Hi I have had APS since 2016, living in Norway and have “fatigue”. This is by far the most demanding problem with my APS. I read on the APS support UK page the following recommendation: “Take 200-400g hydroxychloroquine daily. This drug has long been used to treat fatigue and joint pain in autoimmune

Not diagnosed yet, suffering for many years
Hi everyone, My name is Kimberly, I live in Northwestern United States. I have been struggling with symptoms for years and had no idea this could be MS. I’ve had a hard time going up stairs as well as walking on flat ground for several months, maybe a year. My legs feel as though they weigh a hundred

Itchy eyes
I know that glaucoma makes our eyes sensitive, and I do use lubricating eye drops SO many times during the day, but I still find that my eyes - especially inner eye, and around the base of the lids - gets really itchy. And of course we can't scratch our eyes. So does anybody else find this, and if so

Hi fellow sufferers.
I am new here but have suffered from wet AMD since January 2021 and have had several injections of Eylea in both eyes since. I am currently stable and on an 8 week re-check each time. I also suffer from diplopia (double vision) and this eye problem conflicts with the AMD disease making it difficult

Ocular hypertension
I have ocular hypertension and narrow angles. I have had a successful iridotomy but my pressures remain between 20-30 . Never higher and never lower. My glaucoma consultant whom I saw this week is happy. My eyes are stable. Good visual fields. No optic nerve damage. I use Tiopex and Latanopost drops

Seeing an MPN Specialist tomorrow!
I have an appointment at Stanford with an MPN Specialist tomorrow. Going on 5 years with ET+CALR and currently taking aspirin and 2 pills of Hydrea daily AND 90mcg of Pegasys once a week. We are in a transitional period right now and I will eventually just be taking Pegasys and aspirin. Took my 4th dose

Levothyroxine for Underactive thyroid
I cannot tolerate Levothyroxine and wondered what other options are available to me. I have not taken any medications for nearly five years now. I also have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. I am confused what symptoms are connected with Hypothyroidism and what can be attributed
