Hi Rhoda, this is Bob again. I'm almost 4 weeks from the debridement and very much improved. My vision has improved from 20/400 to 20/40 last week and I will be fitted for a new prescription next week. Your information was most helpful. I came to the realization that I too had to grin and bear it with the pain. However, if there is a next time I will demand pain pills for the peripheral pain. It helps some. I did get a few hydrocodone from a friend and while they did not reduce some of the direct pain it did help minimize the pain overall - eyelid, etc. I do have access to some corneal specialists in Dallas through several references. However if your specialist knows someone in Dallas he would recommend I would be glad to consider it. I will eventually have to have a cataract done in my left eye which also has the map dot dystrophy disease. I'm thinking I might want a specialist to do that if possible to avoid disturbing the disease. I would be interested if you could guide me in the direction of any books related to self-hypnosis. I have used alpha-genics and Sylvan mind control in the past but gotten away from it. I used my meditation to try to direct some healing with the eyes and would like to explore other possibilities if you recommend some. Thanks, Bob

@bobr1040 hi Bob, it’s Rhoda. Sorry so long to get back to you but my other medical condition flared, requiring hospitalization. I am
more available now, baring a few inpatient procedures. In terms of books and hypnosis for pain, illness, etc., try Corydon Hammond, “ “Handbook of Hypnotic Suggestions and Metaphors”. It bridges the clinician patient gap nicely, is easily absorbed and has large numbers of scripts and suggestions to use. It is organized by topic and easy to use. Hope it helps. It is pricy but any good university library should have a copy for loan. You are already using some sophisticated solutions but this book should add to them and give you new ideas. It’s a good addition to pain killers and to the techniques you are already using.
How are you now? Hoping we can stay in touch. I have been uncharacteristically inconsistent but will try to be better, illness allowing.

Best wishes,
Rhoda @rckj
