If my wet MD eye "fails," can someone tell me what to expect? How about the effects on my other eye, if any?
My wonderful opthamologist, who has been injecting Avastin for about 18 months in my wet MD eye, told me during a recent visit that "You've really beaten the odds, Mary. Most people fail within the first 4-8 months." When I got home, I thought about the word "fail," which has an ominous sound. I googled

Lots of black & circular floaters + bloodshot eye after my last Avastin injection. Should I worry?
I have been having regular Avastin shots for 18 months, with no progression of the wet MD. I've had floaters before, but not this many so frequently. I've also had large black circular floaters (from the glycerin used in the packing, from what I've read) which eventually disappeared. Now my floaters

Eyes burning, bloodshot, blurred eye sight.
I woke up with a shock late last night, with incredibly painful eyes. They appeared very bloodshot and were watering copiously. I was unable to open the worst eye properly and my vision seemed distorted and blurred. I poured eyedrops ( for dry eyes) into them and did an eyebath. Eventually it settled

slight smarting both eyes
Developed slight smarting in both my eyes over the last few weeks. My vision is not impaired . The condition is intermittant and does not seriously me but is worrying. Its what I imagine eye strain to be but for no reason. Could it be the chemistry if the tears I wonder. Can this be checked , perhaps

Cataracts or AMD ?
Hi everyone. I am new to this site. I have high myopia which has been stable for many years since I had retinal detachment surgery in both eyes at 30 years old.

Mycosis Fungoides
Hi. I haven’t posted in a while but wanted anyone’s opinion on being tested for mycosis Fungoides and if anyone had CLL plus this disease. It’s a cutaneous T cell lymphoma. I’ve had a rash that was there two years ago and and it goes away and comes back in different areas. No scaling, itchiness

Fist Pump - The little successes!
I could probably post all the time, because you all understand the journey. I try not to over post here, but I wanted to share this with you all. I have a private Facebook group page for my Mom's family & friends, so I can keep everyone updated on her health, and ultimately educate them (or try) on

Central serous chorioretinopathy and PDT
Hi, I have had CSCR episodes in my left eye for a number of years now. They seem to resolve but keep returning,, at least once a year. I had a flare up a few weeks ago and my consultant has suggested Photodynamic Therapy for this Friday. I agreed but now I worry it may end up doing more bad than good

New diagnosis
I was wondering if anyone has heard of blepharitis? I was surprised when I was diagnosed with it. I have never had flaky eye lashes or signs of it. It’s inflammation in the oil glands near the eye lashes. I’m so tired of hear that darn word. “Inflammation”. I have a flare and I’m trying to figure how

PV and Teaching Amidst Covid
Hi All. I am age 54, have PV and also rheumatoid arthritis that may or may not be related to my MPN. I was being treated with Pegasys, and my blood levels were very well controlled. In the last few months though, inflammation led to a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis, which then led to may oncologist

Pineapple and floaters
Has anyone heard of a recent study in Taiwan looking at the effects on floaters of eating pineapple? I have always had floaters, which got worse after a bout of posterior vitreous detachment and are very annoying even if not dangerous as is my AMD (under control with AREDS2 for the dry eye and injections

Edoxaban and surgery - update
Just thought I would update you all, on the issue I had last week concerning stopping taking edoxaban before a minor operation, as I had a blood clot before being prescribed any anti-coag's 7 years ago, and being"more than your average anxious type" person!! I ended up having a telephone discussion about

Rheumatology telephone appointment
Haven’t written on here for a while but do pop in and read what’s happening. Had my second rheumatology appointment yesterday over the phone. He said he had come out of retirement to help out for now during lockdown. He went through ‘my story’. He questioned whether the pains I have in the bottom

Colistimethate powder for use in a nebuliser
Good afternoon all, on a daily basis I take the above powdered antibiotic (Promixin) through my nebuliser with a saline solution to help with my psudamonas bugs. The other day I noticed I had ran out of saline so I had to used one of my salbutamol solutions to mix it. Will this have been ok? Has anyone

Wrinkly fingers and pitting edema on fingers. Is this caused by Hashimotos or maybe a sign of undermedicated?
