View 2 RepliesEyes :: Squint And Itchy Eyes
I have this squint since childhood. My eyes move outward. It happens a lot when I'm tired or try to look quickly at something, It was diagnosed early and I was asked to do a regular exercise with pencil. I had to Keep pencil in front of my nose and look at it and then slowly move the pencil forward and repeat it several times. The later I was given glasses and it improved it a little but then again it got as it was earlier. My vision is 6 by 6. But its just I don't have proper control over the muscles. They seem to be aligned but when I'm tired or move eyes they go outward. I wanted to know how it can be permanently corrected. It just disturbs me and I always feel a stress on my eyes. I have this irritation over eyes too and itching which makes it even worse. How it can be treated or it can be operated? I guess it would be easier with operation and I would go for it but I was asked to do exercise and told that it will stay but will get better, It was 30 degrees.

I am 29. I have squint from birth. I squint my right eye occasionally to focus far objects. I can see the near objects without squinting. I have 100% vision in both my eyes. In my childhood I had my one eye patched to strengthen the muscles. Also I had some eye therapy. Since I was a child I did not take the therapy seriously. So I still squint. I was thinking of getting a surgery to correct this. Now after reading these comments I have decided against getting a surgery and search the internet for some eye exercise.

View 1 RepliesEye Disorders :: 2D Vision And A Squint In Both Eyes
I was born with 2d vision and a squint in both eyes. Also have monocular vision.
I have had 6 operations, 3 on each eye to correct eyes.
I believe that my right eye is getting worse. Vision wise, and squint too.
I only had my glasses changed last November, then only 2 months ago. And Already is my right vision with my new glasses getting worse again. That's only 2 months.
I am seeing someone this Tuesday about it as my optician thinks it's to do with my squint and hitting my head as to why my vision is getting worse.
I was just curious as I am struggling with stairs. If I don't know the stairs I have to hold on and go slow. Like yesterday was in a shop and the stairs was all the same wood, I thought I was going to fall down them as I walked up to them but didn't prepare myself, the feeling is horrible feel like you're on the edge of a cliff. If I know the stairs and they are not too wide. But also my question is, can I drive? I drive now, but have always said I struggle.

I'm 30 yrs old and i have a left-eye amblyopia. I undergone squint surgery last year's August. My eye barely improve and i really feel very down because i was expecting my eye will be at last okay but it didn't. The surgeon said it will require my right eye (which is okay) if i want further improvement in my left eye. I want to know what's will be the downside once my right eye get operated. Please help! My surgeon doesn't talk too much aside from telling me what else i need to do. I really wanted my left eye to be aligned correctly as greatly as possible. I suffered too much.

Actually my 8 months baby girl started squint her left eye inward from last 2 months. In start she do this rarely but now it's increasing day b day specially when she focus on far objects. Today i visit to Dr for her checkup and the Dr suggested her nearsighted glasses.
I am actually confused that her squint is due to her poor vision? or due to poor vision she squient her eye?
I mean poor vision and squint are two different things as i know. right?
Why she only squint when she focus on long distance objects?
Eyes :: Daughter Born With Squint

View 1 RepliesEyes :: Squint Surgery And Recovery Times?
My daughter had surgery on Monday for intermittent exotropia. Surgery went well, however as expected Surgeon has over corrected eye. I know this is to be considered favourable but am wondering how much over correction is ok as the pupil is now sitting almost in the corner of inside eye. At our follow up appointment surgeon said let's wait and see how she is in 2 weeks as the eye area is still very tender and she is not wanting to open it at times. I'm ok will all this as I understand it's a big thing for the eye to go through and it needs time to heal and see if it will settle in place over time and allow spasms to stop. My daughter also still has double vision 3 days later how long can this last? and I'm wondering if you would share your child's experience after surgery?
View 1 RepliesEyes :: Squint Clears Blurriness In My Vision
For the last two weeks my left eye has been blurry. I don't remember hitting it or scratching it. Sometimes a do rub my eyes but nothing has come of it before. In the last two weeks I've noticed the blurry vision for objects mostly far away. My 20/20 vision is now a lot worse when I close my right eye. There has been no pain or itchiness either. Today in class the blurriness was bothering me quite a bit, so I started playing around with the skin around my eye moving it left and right. I noticed if I moved it the right way(closer to my nose) my vision would clear up. Then I tried squinting hard with both eyes(right is closed, left is slightly open) and my vision was clear.

View 6 RepliesEyes :: Squint Corrected With Botox - Double Vision?
I've had a squint all my life (30 years) had two previous surgeries that did not work. My right eye turns inward.
Recently I was referred to hospital for Botox treatment. This was carried out 9 days ago.
My eye is now straight. (Yay) I am however suffering from double vision when I look to the left and what I can only describe as slight 'ghost' double images (not constant) that seems to appear randomly and when looking in any direction,
Has anyone had Botox and experienced something similar? I'm just looking for reassurance that the double vision will pass and I can continue with the Botox treatment?
The botox kicked in 3 days after it was administered so I've only had double vision for about 6 days.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome Triggered By Sports/Exercise?
I've had some form of IBS since I was around 15. I used to get it all the time and wasn't sure why.
Around 6 years ago it just stopped. I thought it was because I had some drastic changes in my life - career, home, love, etc - but then it came back about 3 years ago. I realised that it came on, very badly, the day after I had been to the gym. 6 years ago I stopped all exercise due to the above changes, as well as recovering from an op over a year.
I wasn't doing anything too heavy, just getting back into shape. I then remembered that from the age of 15 I had started doing martial arts, and over the years, added swimming and going to the gym exercise 5 or 6 times a week. This is when I was getting IBS symptoms daily.
Now even if I do any stretching around my lower abdomen, a few hours later I get painful IBS.
The doc said, on several visits, that exercise should make it better, and didn't seem to want to entertain it as a cause.
At first I thought it was foods and was cutting out anything that could trigger it, but this didn't help as there was no pattern when I was eating possible trigger foods.
Anyone else find that sports and/or exercise has triggered your IBS?
If there is another thread already discussing this please could someone direct me to it?
Depression :: Insomnia - Tried Less Caffeine, Relaxing And Setting Up A Bed Routine
For the past 2 years i have had trouble with my sleep, but more so in particularly this past year. It takes me up to and over and hour to fall asleep and even then on average i only get about 5 hours sleep on a good night, and am tired constantly throughout the day. This past year it seems worse as its effecting my eating habits and mood. I tend to forget to eat anything because i just don't get that feeling of being hungry and my moods seem to have completely flipped, I'm more short-tempered and emotional. I have tried everything to help me sleep better. less caffeine, not using technology before bed, setting up a sleep routine, relaxing before sleep. Nothing seems to work, and i'm a bit dubious about going to my GP because i don't know how they could help me.
View 3 RepliesAm I Depressed? Don't Get Enjoyment Out Of The Activities
Basically I feel like I may have had depression for a long time and not realised it. My parents divorced when I was at school and I was definitely depressed after that as I was diagnosed by a doctor, but I thought it had gone away. However recently I have been reflecting upon myself and have come to the realisation that I don't get enjoyment out of the activities that I do and the people I interact with. I have a full social life and am sure to make my schedule busy however I feel that this may be me trying to give myself something to feel happy and excited about in order to try to get myself to feel some positive emotion. I find myself not really caring much about a lot of things. For example I have always been very passionate about the environment and wanting to get a job as a conservationist however since starting university I don't really seem to care that much about it any more or about studying hard go get the grades to achieve my goal. I am tired of feeling anxious about every situation and like people are judging me all the time; I know these feelings are ridiculous but I just cannot shake them and they are interfering a lot with my ability to function as a normal person and to be myself. I am so worried about what other people think that I tend to make a mess of things which just exacerbates the problem. Also I feel quite empty inside and like I don't really know what I am about any more, which holds me back from making any meaningful connections with people as I am unsure as to how to portray myself as I don't feel like I really know who I am any more. Basically I feel like I have the potential to be much better as a person but there is something that is holding me back and I cant seem to work out what that is. I used to be an extremely expressive and eloquent person who could speak their mind but somewhere along the line I lost that and now I seem to hold myself back and am full of constant worry. I am at the point where I just need something to change as I cant stand to continue to feel like this. Also I oversleep all the time and struggle to get to sleep at any time before midnight, and I am also constantly achy and tense. I feel like I am different from my peers just in my daily life and I feel like I stand out when I used to feel like I fit in and was just like the people around me. Any advice and help would be really appreciated.
View 2 RepliesMolluscum Contagiosum :: Getting Engaged In Sexual Activities?
Doctor, my question pertains to my recent diagnosis of molluscum contagiosum by local dermatologist.
Essentially, I had on my pubic region 3 tiny pimple structures that were present over the last 3 months. They did not appear to have the classic central umbilication and they were not necessarily dome shaped.
I consider myself hygienic in that I exercise 5x weekly, eat vitamins daily, am a non smoker and have been negative for STD's from recent testing. I do enjoy going for massages 2-3 times weekly at massage parlors and engage in sexual activities with the therapists including protected vaginal sex. Additionally, I do go into public whirlpools and saunas almost daily.
My questions are:
1. I decided to have the 3 pubic lesions curettaged and am now healing but what if more similar lesions develop in the same/adjacent areas? can I continue to have them cure tagged so as to remove them quickly upon appearance?
2. At the massage parlors, can the hot towels that they use be a mode of transmission and if so would using a dry towel after taking a shower after the massage be safer?
3. If I do see lesion then can I cover it with bandage can I engage in sexual activity?
4. What is the best way to clean the pubic and genital region after intercourse to prevent further episodes? hand sanitizer or Hibiclens?
5. I have become OCD in that I do self skin checks almost a dozen times daily with magnifier. I realize that I am paranoid now but I would like to attack these lesions as soon as I see them.
Uterine Fibroids :: Myomectomy (11 Days) - How Long To Start Normal Activities?
Today is Day 11 for me after surgery and I have been taking it relatively easy but due to boredom decided to do a little ironing today and then I went with my mother to the supermarket. I was going very slow and relying on the trolley to go round but it was a bit of a struggle. I'm now home feeling very tired even though we only got a few things and were not very long.
My question is how soon did you ladies attempt something like this? Did you find t a real struggle. I've been told I should stay active and try to walk a little every day but I couldn't wait to get back home and in bed! Also i get this funny almost numb sensation in my tummy just above my scar. When I touch my tummy I can feel every touch But it's also almost like the area is a little numb. Is this normal? Is it due to all the swelling and bruiskng inside??! I hope to god that there isn't anything wrong and it's just part of the healing process
Eyes :: Geometric Shape Patterns Appearing In Both Eyes
Small but geometric -ish shape. This changes in 1/2 hour or more, the shape gets larger forming a getting larger approximate 'C' shape to the left of center. It is almost like me seeing a crude kaleidoscope . Eventually the thing disappears to the left. The shape seems to be of small triangles squares, anything 'sort of' geometric. I can see past it but still have to see the shape. Whichever eye I close I can still see it; close both I can see it! It has now cleared completely as I have not being looking at the sun or any strong light. Is it 'just one of those things' to be tolerated every now and then. I am 75 and in general good health
