Hello friends,
sorry for the long "off" time. Again sorry. After all private problems have been solved (everything is perfect and good with our younger daughter again), new things happened to my life. I thought: SCI, bowel bladder, DVT, PE and hernia, bloodthinner warfarin for lifetime and compressionstockings - are enough. Ha! Not its not enough! Just after learned (or try to live with that) to manage this things after it started 2012, I have a new diagnosis.
Was at the ophthalmologist 2 weeks ago.
And now told me, the pigmentary dispersions syndrome is now a pigmentary glaucoma on both eyes. Eye inner pressure (IOP) was 29. Still no damage at the optic nerve. No damage at the Facial field. THANK GOD.
Cause of the bloodthinner and other medics, we try first eye drops for helping better pressure IOP. Now every evening this drops (Latanoprost)
This was really a shock for me, cause this time I was/am afraid. Loosing eyesight - cannot imagine (no one can - but we with SCI and so much more things - its more worse). My biggest fear is that one day perhaps I am not allowed to drive my car. My car is the only thing that gives me freedom to get out. My wife has no driving license - so this would be horror.
Just an update. Hoping the eye drops helping in this first step. And perhaps everything is good again. But just an update from me. Just a new diagnosis.
Best wishes !
