Hello @btednes2015. I wanted to bring you into an existing discussion on this topic, so you will notice I have moved your post here:
- Newly diagnosed with Macular Degeneration: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/newly-dignosed-with-macular-degeneration-and-scared-to-death/
Members like @mreenrose @decabea @newyorknill and @annemcilvaine have shared some about their diagnosis and may be able to come back in and share with you too.
Can I confirm why you are reluctant so that I may best help connect you with others?

Not reluctant, I post under Decabea, wrote about new on market treatment for dry, my experience with doctor whose treatment schedule I did not agree with and my wet Mac experiences. Read the posts each am too

I’m hesitant because my doctor isn’t clear on what it supposed to do in one hand, he said it may make it worse and the other may help that and then it’ll be a series of injections. Right now it’s not bad it’s been over a year since I’ve been diagnosed, it seems to be very slow and on the vitamins and I do eat pretty healthy, I’m just wondering what would happen if I just let it go on its own
