Ocular hypertension
I have ocular hypertension and narrow angles. I have had a successful iridotomy but my pressures remain between 20-30 . Never higher and never lower. My glaucoma consultant whom I saw this week is happy. My eyes are stable. Good visual fields. No optic nerve damage. I use Tiopex and Latanopost drops

putting down the burden
I have been practising albeit a bit as hoc putting things weighing me down into an imaginary bag and putting the heavy burden of that bag down. Knowing it’s still mine and I can retreive it should I want to at any time. I know this sounds simplistic but I simply couldn’t live with carrying it all around

Happy hungry Christmas
I hope everyone has a lovely day. Unfortunately we had a power cut last night at 1am and another today at 12.45 just when most people had put their turkeys in. It came back 5 minutes ago. They obviously just reset a fuse during the night which didn't fix it. So no heating, lights, phones, TV or even

Comments please on Serrapeptase
I suffer with severe pain [ using morphine patches and tramadol]from adhesions due to multiple surgeries. A friend of a friend has suggested that serrapeptase supplements may help. I am loathe to try a new medication and I can't seem to find any proper information online as to why this would help. Any

omeprazole use with ani inflammatory medication. Magnesium oil spray.
hi, sorry to hear about your struggles. I’ve been on omeprazole for many years to treat acid reflux. If you’re on any anti inflammatory drugs, these can cause stomach acid and that’s probably why you have been given them. For pain I use magnesium oil spray from Holland and Barrett I find it helps a

Newly diagnosed
I still feel unsure as the information I have been given is quite sketchy. My initial fibroscan in July 2022 seemed to be quite disconcerting as had a liver stiffness of 41.9Kpa with CAP 400, which apparently is the most they could record, so was a little concerned. But nothing was really discussed

Seeing an MPN Specialist tomorrow!
I have an appointment at Stanford with an MPN Specialist tomorrow. Going on 5 years with ET+CALR and currently taking aspirin and 2 pills of Hydrea daily AND 90mcg of Pegasys once a week. We are in a transitional period right now and I will eventually just be taking Pegasys and aspirin. Took my 4th dose

Kenu foot surgery
I think everyone should know that our friend Kenu had quite major foot surgery last week. Let’s keep him in our thoughts and prayers. Many of us know how painful it is to have that surgery. Love to all, Kelly

A critical review of Provenge. Your inputs welcomed?
Any thoughts on this critical review. One thing that strikes me as odd, is how there is no information regarding efficacy since 2012. That's 10 years. If something works well, then why isn't there new data showing that? Some people say, it can't hurt, so just do it. That makes sense if it is true

Levothyroxine for Underactive thyroid
I cannot tolerate Levothyroxine and wondered what other options are available to me. I have not taken any medications for nearly five years now. I also have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. I am confused what symptoms are connected with Hypothyroidism and what can be attributed

Microcystic Edema in glaucoma patient
Hi, my mother has had microcystic edema in both eyes discovered. Have been told there is a possibility that taking Xalatan drops could be connected. Wondered if anyone else has this condition and any talk of these drops being linked to it? Thanks.

Trabeculectomy and theme parks
I had a trab done in one eye following trauma induced high IOP last June. Pressures have been stable since November at around 14.I'm going to a theme park soon (Disney Paris - very excited!) - does anyone know if there are restrictions on roller-coasters with trabs? I'm going with kids, so won't be doing

Weaning off painkillers
Had hip replacement 6 weeks ago.On 1000mg paracetemol and 60mg codeine 4 times a day pain relief. Had no advice about how long I should take this medication or how to manage coming off it. Would love a drink at Christmas. How long should I be on painkillers and can I get off them this week?
