Had my eye doctor appointment today...

The little blood spot from september had cleared up and he said my eyes were better. Also I told him about all the floaters and flashes and he looked at all these pics and there were no retinal detachments or anything. He said everybody sees floaters and your brain gets used to them eventually. I still think floaters are caused by multivitamins though...

next week i see endo to find out why i am so tired and dizzy and cant gain weight, probably hyperthyroidism...i hope

I am really happy for you! Eyes are so precious and we don't realize how we take them for granted until we have problems. Glad to hear yours are in good shape.

Now for the other issues. One at a time eh? Good going!
