I hope you get some answers soon - I understand your frustration. I have had an eye issue that comes and goes, sometimes very distracting. No answers from eye doctors so far and told my vision is good. Passed my drivers license eye test without using glasses, but some days eye is blurry enough so that I can't read a magazine without glasses. So search for why this happens goes on.......

Thanx Charrlan for sharing your story sorry if I’m a letter or two off. Yesterday I had a super proactive day meaning I pulled out my full arsenal of medications and stuff ( eye wash which strangely has resulted in some of the best item that I use.

I know that I talk a lot and actually I struggle, indeed I do not know how to be brief. I also know that my maximism has negative results at time but for instance you reply made me fell like I had to reply.

If I make a statement that my opinions are based on my experiences and I’m not trying to say that ANYTHING I post WILL WORK FOR YOU, however, consider a few things in every verbose word I say because I’m passionate about telling the world if need be what’s happened in hopes that a light goes off in the readers head and they ask themself is ANYTHING strikes a note or a cord and if so ASK ME TO BE SPECIFIC OR DEMAND THAT I EXPLAIN. And the only thing you need to fear is yet another EPICLY LONG REPLY.

All that said allow me to ask YOU and anyone who may take the time to read my musings. For YOU may I ask what part of waiting for Godot seems right to continue to wait especially when you can come here and read in almost on particular illness, malady, disease or whatever YOU or anyone wants to stick a label on thinking that THEY KNOW WHAT WRONG WITH YOU? I’m not attempting to figure out what you have or to tell you what to do except to consider your own words, about HOW LONG YOU MEET DOCTOR “ I don't know “ or take this medication and let's try that one. And I believe it's forum advisor Colleen who has answered a question I asked about a department or doctor who one goes to when all others have failed. I don't know exactly where her answer is but I'm going to tell you what I heard her say: The Mayo Clinic DOES HAVE a department where doctors are super committed to “ 2nd opinions “ I was asking for something beyond a 2nd opinion but if I recall correctly her answer used those words while at the same time answering my question. Yesterday Siri read to me of a patient who was making an appointment in Rochester for this type of “ 2nd opinion “ which is a name I don't like simply for the reason that most people reach out for “ 2nd opinions in their own life with their own condition usually in the town or state were they live and they often get the same answer with many accepting that 2nd opinion.

Here's were I go off and often more people but try to hang in for a few more minutes. At the end of programming one day Doctor Oz asked a very interesting question about that magical 30 minute period ever night on every major network when the most pilll pushing medications happen. Drug companies target THAT 30 minute period to introduce to potential buyers/users their latest greatest medications. Doctor Oz started that by law drug trials must record EVERY REACTION that a trial of a medication gets by those in the trial. But it was these words that reached out from the TV screen and slapped me into listening and considering his words and point. He said he often wonders why anyone would take a medication for “ a rash “ that lists such vial possible reactions such as lung disease, hair falling out, an infection in you “ PARANIUM “ which I didn't even know had a name and I still wonder why does THAT SPOT on ones body get “ a serious infection that......my never be cleared or go away. Do Oz asked his audience to reconsider take a medication for EXEMA ( for instance ) that can result in something that includes vision loss, “ anal leakage, or DEATH? “ is exempt THAT BAD THAT ITS WORK RISK YOU LIFE, hair, bacterial infection in a place that we used to call “ The Taint “ because we had no idea that that little spot has a name of it's own.

Allow me to go on and if someone can suggest a way that I can post a very long page of medications that can and does in fact result in vision impairment. Two of the drugs I was taking and over times the symptoms from those medications.

I'm very sorry that this post is so long. I think that YOU ARE WORTH IT and everyone is WORTH KNOWING.

I've NEVER SEEN ONE LIST DEDICATED TO MEDIATIONS THAT EFFECT THE EYES. A COMPLE MIND BLOWERS ARE eye drop! Vitamins A E and C listed as drugs that possibly CAN have antagonistic effects. What if they can? Should we not know that something we think of as benign can in fact contribute to eye problems

Remember someone tells us to inject bleach into our body to immediately KILL COVID THE virus that was under control only 5 people had it and it was like the flu.

The main point of yesterday's post about my eyes and my heart that I was abused about by Doctors How many people are told “ it's all in your head “ or to me “ maybe it's flashbacks from the 60’s REALLY?

One more question to all. If you are “ a senior citizen how often did you hear ( when you were in grade school or even high school how often or EVER did you hear that someone suffered from “ MACULAR DEGENERATION”? I NEVER HEARD OF IT! NOT one elderly family member or neighbor or friend. Then in the late 70’s my cousins son had it. We all had to ask what it was and what are the signs and how does on get it. I recall hearing that it was rare. Now I hear about it EVERYDAY! More people than I can count has some form of it. No one asks how or why? Where did it come from? Why? When? And I've never heard an answer.

When I got the list of medications it blew my mind that one of those medications advertised during that 30 minute news period says it leads to Macular regeneration and if not stopped soon enough the Mac DGen continues to arisen even if you totally stop taking the medication.

I'm sorry, but this seems vitally important yet who's heard about this?

What you currently hear now is this: “ if COVID” has caused financial hardship ( companies name here ) can help. Meaning WE WANT YOU TO TAKE THOSE DRUGS!

And we now need an option policy.

How brain washed have we call become?

And think twice about letting the 2ns opinion doctor read someone else not don't give them a tour and MAP of the Capital.

If I need to ill post that list in pieces get ready to pick your jaw up off of the floor!

Don't give up Cherriann!
