@kayabbott Hope is only an advantage if it's not false hope. It's still a good idea to talk about supplement use, which multivitamins you take, if you take eye vitamins, or any other adjustments you make. If you start running 5Ks your doc needs to know that too to explain the new stress to your legs and possibly new fatigue. Your doctor won't tell you to stop taking something unless it might interfer with treatment or has a known risk. He knows the value of hope too. But the reality is, if you're taking something like an eye vitamins it doesn't always stay in it's lane The body can't sort things out and direct them to specific areas in most cases. They just circulate and end up wherever they're welcome. So talk to the person who knows what might not be welcome
