Early AMD and epimacular membrane
Hi, I have been diagnosed with early dry macular degeneration in both eyes but apparently any visual distortion I have (wavy lines etc.,) are due to this membrane rather than AMD at the moment. Other distortion is that the membrane eye sees things larger that the other. Ibeelieve surgery to remove it

Anyone tried PIP Apixiban, post-ablation?
Hello I am now almost 5 months post-ablation and doing well with no AF/flutters since, and have resumed moderate trail running, cycling etc feeling great. I was taken off all medications except apixiban. I had assumed I would take it for life, but a week ago had to stop it completely due to worsening

Recurrent bladder irritation
Since my horrific experience of urinary sepsis I am understandably concerned that it could return, to that end I am neurotically testing it with a dip stick. No infection as yet however I am not convinced that the bladder sedative I was prescribed Solifenacin 5mgs, is doing anything. Does anyone else

baricitinib over 65
hi I hade a rheumatology appointment last week where I was told that if I was a new patient at 65 I wouldnāt have been given baricinib as new guide lines were that because it could cause coronary problems or some cancers this risk is higher over the age of 65. I was given the option to half the dose

Double Vision after Eylea shot.
Good Morning All. After my last Eylea shot 3 weeks ago in my right eye, I experienced double vision and the Dr. had to insert a needle to withdraw some of the fluid. I have been getting shots for about 6 years and also have glaucoma. I have gone blind a couple of times after shots, but never had

Test results help
In UK my TSH is 0.21 m/U/L. Doc says it's fine but I'm not sleeping & have excess hair loss again. I've seen optimal range for healthy adults at 0.5-1.0 but that in uIU/mL so I'm confused. Is my TSH reading then showing too low or high & do I need to lower my levo meds and or up them? Sorry my memory

my doctor ask me if I would be interested in going into phase 3 clinical trials for macular degeneration gene therapy. Has anyone on this forum been in a clinical trial or what is your opinion?
