Unilateral or bilateral procedure?
I was recently referred by my optician as slight differences were noted since last year’s appointment. My referral outcome letter says my optician was “…… querying cupping of the left eye in particular “ and ends with “… Disc ocular coherence topography shows suspicious optic disc on the left side in

Low eye pressure
I have Normal Tension Glaucoma and had a Deep Scleretomy operation on my right eye 18 months ago ( I believe this is a similar operation to a trab, the aim being to lower the pressure) and I have a bleb under my eyelid. Immediately after surgery the pressure dropped to 3 but gradually over eight months

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,

A few questions about being a. ‘Glaucoma suspect’
Hi, first post for me. I’ve been reading your messages since February and they have been very helpful so thank you all!! This is the rather longwinded background: My husband was picked up at a routine eye test as having some changes suggestive of glaucoma. He was seen pretty quickly (within 2-3 weeks

Being taking off Pegasys. :( Looking for alternatives
Hi all, I have ET & PV with Jak2. I am 40. I have been on aspirin for over 10 years, but had to start Pegasys 3 months ago. I haven't tolerated it well. Severe shortness of breath etc. My hematologist reduced my dose to 30 per week, but I am suffering with hypertension (150 to 69/96 on average) and

Does Maxidex steroid add to Pred dose?
I had a new lens fitted on 2 April and have to use Dexamethasomex or Maxidex four times a day. Does this add to my total steroid intake with the Pred. Am on 10 mg after a flare and trying to get back to 7.5 as soon as possible. I also have a preventative asthma inhaler which is a steroid presumably

I'm was hoping to start taking spirulina and chlorella as they have so many health benefits but I not sure of any drug interactions. I've tried Google but I'm getting conflicting advice, some say

DVLA vision test
I am past 70 so needed to apply for license renewal. I know I have glaucoma in one eye so when I filled out the form online I ticked the box for eye conditions. I’m pretty certain that one of the questions was one or both eyes, I ticked one eye only. Few week later got the dreaded DVLA letter. This surprised

immune system
Hi Everyone Can anyone tell me what affect Pegasys has on the immune system. A few tears ago I had a positive ANA and Anti-Ro blood test, was seen by a Rheumatologist who said I had Sicca symptoms but not Sjogrens. Another recent blood test has shown the same, positive ANA and Anti Ro. Now I am having

Drops affecting eyelashes
I'm 41, had a combined trab & lens replacement in right eye 2 years ago and just lens replacement in left eye a few months later. Now the only drops I take are Dorzolamide timolol in the left eye, twice a day.I switched to the preservative free drops a few months ago but I think it's negatively affecting

EXCESSIVE WATERING EYES
I have had normal tension glaucoma for about 12 years, I’ve had a variety of eye drops for 10 years and a Deep Scleretomy operation on my right eye 18 months ago which now needs a Bleb adjustment. For the last few years I have had a real problem with watering eyes which has gone worse in my right eye

How accurate is a visual field test?
Hello I am new to this site but have been a member of Health Unlocked for some time. I have had glaucoma in both eyes for approximately 11 years and was well controlled until about 3.5 years ago when I developed uveitis in my left eye (my worse eye for glaucoma). It was treated as an acute emergency

Edoxaban and dreams and nightmares

Stopping Injections After 3 Loading Doses
Hi! I’m new here and learning so much from reading all of the posts here. I was diagnosed with low B12 levels earlier on this year, although my PA antibodies came back negative. I was put on injections, and was meant to have 6 over 2 weeks followed by 1 every 3 months, however my GP had to stop them
