Now how come when YOU write that "D" word it comes out??????? When I write it it's starred out! This is WEIRD!!!!!! I have to use the word "spots"!

OK, to answer the question. This seems to be the only eye problem I've never had, but I've heard alot about "visual snow" - check that out - either on google or on these boards, see if you can relate (it's really common!)

Have you had your blood pressure checked recently? If not, you might want to do that. That is a common symptom of high blood pressure (especially since you mentioned the tingling.) I don't want to freak you out, but I would find a way to have your bp taken.
