Hi All
I had to go off my low carb plan for a few months last year (long story) but have been back on the plan for 6 weeks, I had my eye screening last week & received a letter on Friday advising me that I am being referred to the hospital for further checks as my eyes are showing signs of maculopathy, now from my extensive googling sessions over the weekend it appears that this can happen if your blood sugars have started to drop suddenly, this is obviously the case with me but will the hospital take any notice regarding this info? the last thing I want is injections in the eyes if this will clear up in a short time, I am worrying myself sick here about it
Just to add I have no issues with my eyes in terms of blurriness
