So I recently had my hospital appointment for screening. I was slightly anxious as my BG's haven't been great recently.
They did the usual scans. The test the consultant did with the vertical light was very uncomfortable this time, as trying not to blink as me checked my eyes was hard- the light seemed to "burn" way more than normally.
Anyway, the result was that my bleed has gone and there is no free fluid in my eye. Now that's a first in years. Last year I had managed to loose a cyst that I had in one eye. The bleed has been ongoing for a few years now, but not bad enough to need treatment - other than lowering sugars I guess. I'm honestly not sure how I've managed, but I'm just happy I have!
