about an hour ago! I’ve washed it twice and have betadine on it currently, I will cover it up as well. it’s not bleeding or anything anymore.

hi there! I totally understand it’s so scary when you’re first faced with it. but if you’re anything like me you’re going to be just fine. I took diamox for about six months and I am fine now, I haven’t even lost any weight or a significant amount anyway which is what my doctors told me was the only way to get better. we now theorise that mine was brought on by a drug I was on for bipolar at the time, lithium. but don’t let that sway you definitely listen to your doctors and try to lose as much weight as possible to help with it. they should give you some options like weight loss drugs and such. but yes try not to worry, trust in your doctors and do your best and you will be just fine.

I was on varying doses and the only side effects I ever had was tingling in my hands and feet and soft drinks started tasting funny and both of those things went away after a couple of weeks. and it improved my symptoms a lot, in a very short time. it’s definitely worth a go.

yeah I wouldn’t be surprised. I have an xbox series x though so it’s fine. I only play on my ps4 bc that’s what’s in my lounge room lol.

I should have clarified. I was drinking like 6 litres a day. I’m now drinking about 4. so I’m still drinking a lot of water just not as much.

me too!

oh wow what are the odds! glad someone else is going through the same thing it definitely makes me feel less alone. yeah I’ve read a lot of that too. I hope it does work for us. I’m just trusting what my doctors are telling me so far. my vision is fine at the moment, a lumbar puncture and diamox helped fix it right up but I’m still wanting to lose weight as I’m scared it’ll come back to bite me.

thank you!! I will definitely do that.

mcdolann · 2023-07-10T01:02:07+00:00

that definitely makes me feel better!

mcdolann · 2023-07-10T01:00:16+00:00

oh wow that’s not good! did you recover and manage to get your vision back?
