NHS waiting time
I have recently gone private due to lack of confidence in NHS eye clinic. This sadly has proved correct following an optic nerve scan showed considerable loss of vision and that I need urgent operations. The consultant asked me whether I had a scan in nhs clinic I said maybe when I had cataracts op

Hi, has anyone any experience with taking a collagen supplement? I suffer from IBS C and would like to try collagen for joint pain etc, but am nervous of it making my IBS worse. Any advice gratefully received.

Eye issues and tapering to 0 pred
Hello, two questions for you. One, has anyone has a retinal macroaneurysm? I was very recently diagnosed during a routine examination and wondered if it was common among PMR patients? I have had uveitis in the past. Two, I have tapered from 40 mg to 1 mg over the past 5 years for PMR. I am wondering

Yet another update on Swollen Eye
Back at Moorfields Eye Hospital today. It remains a mystery why my right eye has been such a problem. Good news is that it is better, however, eye pressure increased in both eyes now, (29 R and 21L). Face aches (not a joke) and heavy headache in the mornings which improves as the day goes on. In the

bloodshot eye and Graves
I got this today out of the blue. Going to have it checked tomorrow. I wonder if this is to do with Graves/TED? I’m currently on 2.5mg carbimazole.

change in eye drops
Newbie here. I’ve been diagnosed with glaucoma in my right eye and high IOP in left since 2022. I’ve been on Monoprost drops in both eyes since ‘22 and they were working fine as far as I know. I’ve had a yearly appointment at the hospital, which is a virtual clinic ie no doctor. My pressures were up

Inhaler and taste
Hello, I’m currently taking Seretide 50 Evohaler, always with an aero chamber. Despite this, I find a lot of the medicine ends up on my mouth, especially my tongue, and that i end up losing a lot of my taste. Has anyone else had this? I make sure I gargle with water and brush my teeth after taking,

dizziness of visual origin
I have GCA but, so far, no eye problems. 3 weeks ago I had a cataract operation. Ever since I have been having visual disturbances (things seem to shimmer) that upset my balance. They are helped by wearing polaroid sunglasses, but indoors that often makes things so dark that I can't see what I am

Update and Double Vision Query
Hi Thanks for all the replies I have received. My update: I had a trabulectomy revision on my right eye in May 2024. Eye sight has been restored in my right eye - however the right eye lid was always droopy but is now worse and if I try to open the eyelid up I get double vision or ghost vision

I am feeling great!
So, a few months ago , I was struggling to get below 2 mgs of prednisone. I have had pmr for 4 years. I did the keto diet, vegan diet, gluten free, and every other diet, to control my inflammation. Two months ago I started the Carnivore diet. I eat steak, chicken, all fish, eggs, and some dairy. I

Lupus and Sjogrens issue
Has anybody ever had issues with lupus/sjogrens in their ears? I caught a cold and mucus has settled in my Eustachian tubes or something and they have been blocked now for over 15 months. I have so much fullness and pressure in both ears and I have lost a lot of my hearing. Prednisone hasn't helped
