EMDR.. anyone?
I am due to start EMDR next week. I have put it off for quite some time for one reason or another but I finally feel brave enough to start this. Anyone else on this journey? Or any success stories? My therapist thinks I have lots of little traumas mostly including health and death and believes this will

Dry eyes and hydration
I have lived with glaucoma for more than a decade, and over the years the associated experience of dry eyes and blurred vision has become an increasing problem alongside the treatment interventions and the eye drops that I’m required to use. Some days are worse than others and I’ve never really understood

Euthyroid Sick Syndrome
Hi everyone, Just wondering if anyone has been diagnosed with Euthyroid Sick Syndrome or thinks they may have it? I am now beginning to think that my problems are due to this and not Hypothyroidism. Am thinking of getting a reverse T3 test but it's quite expensive.This cannot be treated with meds so

a poem for light relief
Check up day, and I’m Right on time 10 minutes early for my ten to nine They call me through but false alarm It’s just the nurse, eye test, stay calm My good eye reads nearly all the chart But Glaucoma eye is not so smart Can only get about halfway down through pinholes an extra line can

Midazelam
Hi I am having cataract surgery on Sunday and you are given choice of a sedative or not. The nurse said "they usually " use Midazelam -obviously anything offered if i am unsure I will go without it. Does anyone know if Midazelam is RLS safe ? Don't want legs jumping around and the surgical instruments

Dry Matter in the corner of eyes.
Does anyone have problems with dry matter in the inside corner of their eyes? I know Glaucoma can be associated with dry eyes and fortunately, so far, I have not had too much of a problem.. However lately I have noticed an occasional sharp pain in the corner of my eye as a piece of matter comes out.

Dry mouth
Hi, I'm on Besremi, now at 150 every two weeks (down from 180 as WBC got too low). I have had dry eyes for awhile, but suddenly I'm noticing my mouth is really dry. I also have frequent urination, and have had for sometime which is driving me crazy. I do see urologist next week about that issue

Hope this helps!
Hi everyone, I do not have CLL but I do have the itchy, pins and needles prickly feeling on my upper arms at night when I cover up. Once it starts it's relentless. I spoke to my Dermatologist about it and she said it sounded like a nerve problem. She prescribed me Fluocinonide cream 0.05 percent. I rub

pegasys and migraines
I see from a recent post response that there are others on Pegasys who have suffered from migraines. I have been on 45 mcg weekly for a few months and have just had an excruciatingly painful migraine. I have had a few less painful ones. I’m hoping some patients will share their experience on this

Monopost Eye Drops
Hi, does anyone know of an alternative eye drop to monopost. I have been prescribed this to take in each eye once a day at night but after 2 weeks am finding it unbearable even though I am using eye lubrication drops to try and help with the itchy soreness.

Link between dry eyes and throat and PMRGCA? Any ideas?
This is my first post, so it’s a bit long-winded, as I’ve included some context and background. Context: • About 20 years ago, when I was in my mid-50s, I developed dry eyes and dry throat. This was eventually diagnosed as ‘dry eye/dry throat syndrome’. I had my tear ducts plugged to minimise loss
