    whitey-grey floaters in right eye

    Thanks for the replies. I was wondering if it maybe had to do with the vision correction procedure I had back in 2009. I had been short-sighted and wearing glasses since I was about 10yo and four or five years ago I started to get sick of wearing them and thought they hid my eye makeup (yeah...

    hungry !!!!

    that's why I've always dreaded being put on insulin but it's heading that way more and more every day unless I change my diet and lifestyle and hope that'll delay insulin a good while.
