[QUOTE="Raghu_Nandan, post: 1756064, member: 374107"] Hello everyone , I had my Retina specialist visit yesterday and he has asked me for another round of laser in my right eye- i was not at all expecting another round laser as my glucose , BP and cholestrol control is excellent-I am following strict low carb and exercise (4 days strength training ) . My last HB1AC was 5.3 and constantly in low and mid 5's since last march . , i have NPDR and DME in right eye .. D2 currently on Amrayl 0.5 mg and pioglitazone -10 mg . I was just reading on [URL]http://www.diabeticretinopathy.org.uk/pre-proliferative.html[/URL] and it's mentioned pioglitazone shouldn't be prescribed for severe patients with DME .. I am not sure is the pioglitazone culprit for odema and more bleeds Also i am doing resistance exercise with Moderate weights (squats,deadlift etc) ... getting conflicting views on this , some people say shouldn't do wights some are saying we can do ... really not sure my retina doc last time said i can do exercise but this new bleeds made me doubt .. Any help/pointers will be appreciated ..this is so frustrating ... [/QUOTE]
