Steroid injection
Hi everyone. I had a steroid injection this morning in my little finger. It's been locking alot lately and causing pain in my lower arm. I'm told it's because of skin thickening in my hand. Only diagnosed in July. Has anyone else had this experience?

Tooth health !
Just a reminder to keep up with oral health. I go every six months but my dentist said that the plaque builds up faster because chemo gives you dry mouth . She found that I had cavities under two capped teeth which had to be removed , treated and be recapped , the last being Friday. My mouth is still

Thank you and a couple of questions
Dear fellow suffers, if I may call you that. Thank you all of you for giving me your thoughts on my previous post. To add to the person who quoted Shakespeare’s ‘’flesh is heir to’’ ailments, then my contribution is a quote from an American writer whose name I forgot, ‘’old age and ailments make me

Eye pressure variability.
An interesting piece of recent American research has compared the slightly higher pressures in the colder months compared with warmer months. Also that pressures are lowered with dynamic exercise like jogging and cycling but probably not with weight lifting. I found it interesting that dry eyes tend

Follow up from trab
Hi there, I had my first appointment with the surgeon who did my trab yesterday. The pressure was 12, which is good fo me, and he said everything looked good so far. Though he said there was still a long way to go - I presume he means it has to drain consistently and the pressure remain stable. The

Vision in "bad" slightly blurry; eye sensitive to bright lights
Hi all, I don't see my retinal specialist (I'm in the US) until January for my regular injection. My "bad" eye has been somewhat blurry, slight double vision with it, for several months. Last time I saw my doctor, she said "It's the macula." Unfortunately, I did not ask her to clarify. Recently

Still they don't get it
Thiis review yet again commits the cardinal sin of lumping in together the majority who are indifferent to T4 only therapy, and those who benefit from combination. Another useless waste of paper with as usual, the allegation that T4 only and T4/T3 therapy are no different (though a minority preferred

Newly Diagnosed
Hi Everyone Was diagnosed with glaucoma and cataract in right eye at normal 2 year opticians visit and feel I have been thrust into a tumble drier. Don't fully undestand all the terminology but will do my best. I had no symptoms and a full field scan(?) pick up no sign of peripheral loss. Going back

Canaloplasty
It’s now a week since I had my right cataract removed and canaloplasty in that eye. So far so good! The vision in my right eye is now fantastic (because the cataract has been removed). It is a joy to see bright colours again and as I have worn glasses for short sight since I was 7 its amazing to be able

Thyroid eye disease
I need help! I have hyperactive thyroid, one of my eye started to swell and bulge out little bit. Now one of my eye is bigger than the other one. I completely lost self confidence. My gp said his going to refer me to a eye specialist but this takes 10 days for the referral to be sent. I am on Carbinazole

Trab went well
I just wanted to share that my trab on Tuesday went very well, despite my fears about having only a local anaesthetic. I got some great support from people on here back in the summer when I knew it was on the cards which was very helpful. I was made very comfortable and didn't feel a thing, not even

Interesting Webinar Takeaways
I watched a webinar yesterday morning on a site called New Horizons and they shared some hopeful new developments in glaucoma research so I thought I'd share them on here: Vitamin B3 Nicotinamide showed slight improvement in the vision of the participants of a limited study. It could possibly be neuroprotective

First diagnosis finally
I don’t no how I feel about this. Not sure I lf I am happy or sad. But today after months of eye hospital visits I have been diagnosed with severe autoimmune inflammatory eye disease and given immunosuppression eye drops and more steroids. My rheumatologist has now handed me over to the connective tissue

PEX glaucoma and cataract surgery
I have pseudoexfoliation glaucoma and bilateral cataracts. The ophthalmologist has referred me for cataract surgery in one eye. The other, she says, does not need it yet - her opinion not mine. Slight smile from me. Ophthalmologist fully explained all the possible complications and the fact that it

Double vision while bending over
I went back up to 40mg Prednisolone on Thursday as a result of a GCA flare. No symptoms on Thursday or Friday, but then today I've had six short periods of double vision (which I was having when first diagnosed back in January, and then during the first part of this flare). Three of today's were while

DVLA Visual Field Test
Hi, I’ve just got my letter from DVLA asking me to arrange a VFT as expected. However, I’ve only ever had one VFT and this is the first time for DVLA and I am nervous about it. It doesn’t help that it’s at Specsavers who I went to 5 times in 2019 telling them I had a problem with my vision and they
