I have been on an injection called Acthar Gel which has helped with the pain I also had Cataract surgery both eyes a month ago at this time I will not be able to pass my drivers test in July. Going to the eye doctor june 1st hoping the laser surgery for right eye helps the vision. But anyone experiencing severe eye Pain ask about the Acthare Gel one injection every 72 hours very expensive check to see if your insurance will cover it ( mine does but they also have grants )

Almost undetectable sounds like a prayer answered this side of heaven. Reading good outcomes helps me feel more hopeful about my treatment. Thanks for posting this!

My cancer Dr. 2 days ago said my Lukima is almost undetectable and being treated with Sprycel! I have lived on Maui most of my life and have a large ohana or family! I think I I am feeling sorry for myself! Since the Lukima I contracted Epilepsy, which came with Seazures! I am being treated for that, I think successfully!

I too have vision issues caused by an ocular occlusion which i lost vision in my left eye. the eye pressure was severe. normal pressure is 12-22. mine was 88. Basically, they did what they could but ended up destroying the part of the eye thar makes fluid down to 25%. So I'm blind in my left eye. My right eye is also giving me issues as I'm losing vision there too. i do an eye injection like every 6 weeks if I need it. Las tappt this week, i didn't need one. So just hang in there and may God bless you.
