Nikki my eye drs - Multiple Sclerosis Message Board

Hi Nikki, I see a cornea and a retina specialist for my eyes. I was born with eye problems too many to go into details but the cornea doc wants me to see the retina doc since he has an ultrasound machine to see in the back of my eyes with. I have gone to these drs for years. The cornea guy wants to see whats happening because when I had my steroid infusions my eyes became better and in the last few weeks they are worse again. I hope there is something you can do for your legs, I know how that feels, but I keep pushing myself to do normal things and I think it makes it worse, try to stay in bed uggg!!!!!! Good luck getting the help we need at home. How are you feeling today? Better I hope

Hi hotflash.
SOrry to hear you have eye problems. At one point, about 10 years ago, they found a hole in my retina and absolutely NO idea what caused it. I wound up having laser surgery to "secure" the hole. I never had any other problems until my first bout of optical neuritis...guess I dont need to tell you about eye drs, then, do I?
Im feeling alittle better today, thanks for asking. I live in a condo, and the pool is open on weekends now. I spent the early hours of the afternoon sitting in the pool in a step basking in the whole being cool idea! It seemed to help alittle.
Now though, im exhuasted..typical, right?
Hope you are feeling good today..
