Amsler Grid, lack of self-confidence, and reading tips
When I use the grid, I cannot see changes from day to day. I worry that I am missing something. The fear is made worse because I feel my reading ability is deteriorating. I live in the States and do not have to wait two weeks for an appointment. When I call and say I think I see a change, I am seen

Dry eyes
For the past 12 months my eyes have become quite dry so as many people I use eye drops daily to keep them hydrated. I did some research and found a supplement bought through Amazon called ‘Sea Buckthorn oil capsules’ with omega7 the make is Nature’s. Aid. I have taken these for about a month and my dry

Possibility of discontinuing Lucentis injections
I was diagnosed with wet AMD in my left eye 2 years ago, since then I’ve been receiving regular (4/5/6) weekly injections and scans. This morning I had a sight test and scan at the eye clinic and was told that my eye sight had got worse. The doctor explained that it was marginal that I would be able

EMDR
Hi everyone New here but I just wanted to share my experience of treatment with EMDR for anyone considering it or potentially struggling with it. I have been having EMDR since October and I won't lie, it is draining and it takes a lot of work. But I really have started to see a difference in myself

Week 4 Run 1 - Willpower wins out!
I tackled W4R1 early this morning and found the jump to 5 mins of running quite tough. But despite my thighs burning and my shins really complaining, somehow I managed to get through it. The only way I could do so, was by shouting at myself as I ran (jogged very, very slowly) to 'come on' and 'you can

Steroids for a relapse
Hi Group, I would like to ask you if you would share your experience with steroids. I know we are all different and will react differently but what i want to know is did it work? If your doc put you on steroids did it stop the relapse? My experience is mixed: 1st time, oral steroids worked great. 2nd

Phantom smell
Hello all, My sense of smell is present, but for the last 6 weeks I have been smelling a foul scent that is not really there. It is almost like a pungent soap. Originally I thought it was coming from the clothes that were washed and may have had too much soap or something, but after this long it is

Is this a flare?
Sorry this is so late, I just wondered if any of you might be around to give me a word or two of your wisdom at short notice... GCA since last August, at which time I had a 6th nerve palsy and double vision, but luckily I kept the sight. 7 months later, Prednisolone down from 60 mg to 12.5 as advised

PTSD my whole life?
So I started going to PTSD webinars and when I truly started to reflect on what was going on in my life. Like comparing how a normal person would raise a child compared to how I was actually raised. I think I maybe have had trauma from a very early age from being beat, or being yelled or screamed at

Anxiety beyond what I know how to cope with
I'm sorry if this isn't the right group to post but I feel comfortable here. My ptsd is very evident right now and I keep thinking I see someone that hurt me in the past every day now.... in a car on the road, a seat next to me at a dinner, etc. And I go into a silent rage. I was working on my ptsd
