Hi to everyone – I haven’t been on the BB for a long time. Went to Philadelphia
to have radiation (10) treatments to stabilize my severe double vision
which started in March. Heard about this wonderful optho/surgeon there from
this BB. In Ohio they don’t treat the double vision this way – just expect you
to wait until it stabilizes on it’s own. If all goes well I’ll go back there
to Will’s Eye Hospital to have the first surgery in Jan. and it will take
a couple more for it to get this corrected.
My question to all you warriors who might have had the eye problems before
the thyroid went hyper is this: Did the treatment- RAI or antithyroid drugs
cause further problems with the eyes. I am seeing an Endo for the first
time tomorrow (Aug. 29) as tests show I am slightly hyper now and I want
to be able to ask him questions about this. Sorry this is so long.
Sue
