[QUOTE="kaup, post: 833372, member: 47988"] Hey guys, Had Diabetes 1 for 18 years. Im 31 now. Had some swings in my blood sugar lately with high peaks. 2 weeks ago i suddenly got one gray spot in my left eyesight. Today i went to an eye doctor where they took all kinds of tests on retina. They said that the light gray small spot in my left eye is a first sign of Diabetes retinopathy. And no treatment was neccesarely at this stage. But that i should get my blood sugar levels in control and get back to them in 1 month. Its basically a small abstract transparent fluffy spot in left eye. Im scared as hell now about loosing my sights etc. As they say this cant be reveresed or disappear if you get blood sugar under control? Please give me some encouring words and tips. Since i need some before i totally start going insane and paranoid about loosing sight etc. [/QUOTE]
