Partial vision loss
So I have a few questions that I hope someone can answer. 1) has anyone else experienced partial
vision
loss
after meningitis and how does it appear to you? 2) has anyone been told it's this entoptic phenomena?

Misdiagnosis of VM - read if you get headaches while sitting or stand but resolve when laying down
Hi, Back in August, I had headaches, stiff/sore neck, tinnitus, a bit of hearing
loss
. A few days later, double
vision
. I got a VM diagnosis and went home. It was pretty awful but things would get a bit better and then a bit worse. I'd lay down for a few days, feel a bit better.

Tricky Little Things
Hey ya'll! So I went and completed my first Warrior Dash yesterday and it was so nice to do something athletic after only dreaming about it in the past. I did pretty good and felt good after. That night a few family members and I went to a haunted house and as we waited outside in line for over an hour

Advice on weight loss please
Hi all, let me start by saying I don't believe in diets,Weight Watchers, Slimming World etc. Yes people loose weight but I've seen too many pile it back on again!! I know the sensible way for most people is portion control and exercise, but from what I've picked up on here is that we hypos are a bit

Electroconvulsive therapy mostly used on women and older people, says study

wrist arthrodesis- anyone had one
Hi, I have a date for a left wrist arthrodesis. I'm a bit scared. It seems like a successful operation and good for pain relief. My left wrist is pretty damaged from the RA and in constant pain. Often It's bearable and other times excruciating. I was told it would eventually fuse naturally but it could
