Hi Rob,
Thanks for responding. I'll try to ask her specifics. We all think it's from stress and Imetrex, it's suppose to have a side effect such as closing your arteries or something like that. Her eyes aren't getting the proper circulation so since last October98, her right eye began to lose vision. Once this one was on it's way to being almost completely blind the left one began to lose vision too. We're all so worried about her, actually I have to go over to help her move this week. She is moving 2 houses away from her aunt and uncle. She can't drive at all and she is now taking classes at the Brail Institute and using a white cane. So sad. She was so normal before all of this happened. I think she started with black spots too maybe. I'll ask her. It's so imazing to us, no doctors can figure out what the problem is. Not even at UCLA medical center, they are all puzzled. I bet it has something to do with that damn medication.
Thanks again,
Take care
Mike
