Worried
I’m really having a bad day today. I’ve felt a strange sensation on the top of my eyes not sure if it’s dry eye and when I put my glasses on I feel things are not so clear. Scared of going blind. I have been told disc cupping is 0.7 and 0.8 I googled and I think it’s really bad. I’m so sad right now.

Hi, I was diagnosed 9 weeks ago and have had two appointments. Diagnosis: left eye glaucomatous optic neuropathy, cataracts 3+ on both eyes and astigmatism on right eye. I’ve been using Monopost for 8 weeks and pressure has come down from16 on both eyes to 13 on L and 11 on R eye. Consultant is pleased

Hair loss and dry eye
I am female and I’ve been on 75mg of Levothyroxine for 10 years now, I have recently noticed my hair is receding and am suffering from dry eye conditions. Is there any supplement that can help me or do I need to ask for an increase in my medication. I recently had a blood test that said it was normal

Does anyone else have this
I'm going for blood tests tomorrow. I have had a sore throat for months. Dry eyes, dry nose, tingling in my mouth and lumps that look like they will be ulcers. My tongue is sore and I'm now itching behind my ears and on the inside of my wrists where I am now getting red spots. Dr has requested tests

Promotion to a new a job
According to the Capita I have a new role - I have been classified as a walking aid, how I rank compared to a guide dog for the blind or an assistance dog for intelligence or hazard awareness is going to be a some debate ! Yesterday, my wife had her PIP telephone assessment. We had the usual trick questions

Worried about Laparoscopy
Hi - I’m due to have a laparoscopy and hysteroscopy on Monday and I’m starting freak out a bit. I’m really worried about blood clots forming post surgery - I have intermittent positive antiphospholipid syndrome and have suffered acute coronary syndrome and a central retinal vein occlusion. I have not

Update & many Thanks to you all.
I wanted to give a big thank you to all of you that gave me such informative information. Boy did it help. Went to Specsavers this morning was very impressed with them. Upshot is a burst blood vessel caused she thinks by the possibility of high blood pressure. I’ve also got the beginning of cataracts

Maintenance without Steroid
Has anyone got any suggestions? With inhaled steroids of any kind, my eye pressure is increasing. I have had an iridotomy in both eyes and the pressure decreased to 17. However, I started retaking Symbicort 100/6 one puff twice daily. Only doing this for 8 weeks and my eye pressure has increased to 25

Steroids and cataracts
I had an eye test last week and was told I have developed steroid related cataracts (as opposed to age related). Something to get checked out for those with blurry vision. The optician also suggested a slight tint for my lenses to help with the extra light sensitivity they cause. The best news is

Cataract ops,PMR and vertigo
I haven’t posted for more than a year but on opening the app was delighted and amazed to see PMRPro and Dorset Lady still giving up their time helping us all. After 4 years I’m alternating between 4.00 and 4.5 every other day. PMR still hanging round but yoga and other exercises to start my day tend

Drug side effects pilocarpine, dorzolamide/timolol, diamox generic acetazolomide
Narrow angle glaucoma cataract surgery in a few weeks. Taking pilocarpine, dorzolamide/timolol for over a month but recently seems to make me dizzy especially when lying flat. Also slowly withdrawing diamox 250mg. How can I lie still for surgery with this. Does anyone have advice or experience of this

Advice please
I’ve been taking hydroxychoroquine for nine years now. Up until this year they were working well with no side effects. Since October I’ve been flaring regularly my joints have got a lot worse, as in painful & swollen. But also I’ve been feeling sick & have really itchy skin with a rash on my chest.

More advice please prior to GP consultation
Hi experts. I upped my pred dose to 20 mg 2 weeks ago believing I had PMR flare after dropping to 15 for 2 weeks. But with your knowledge and experience you suggested Piriformis syndrome - am still struggling with the PS pains but am fortunately having some sports therapy massage and stretching and exercising

Nebivolol timing and low blood pressure
I take 2.5mg Nebivolol and 200mg Flecainide daily, taking the Nebivolol in the mornings. I have low normal BP but recently have had readings in the 80/50 range which make me feel pretty bad. I drink water and keep my salt level up but every day down it goes about 2 hours after I take the Nebivolol
