[QUOTE="Deleted member 45091, post: 2514046"] Hi everyone again, Iam at the clinic tomorrow at 10am having a look at eating less carbs, going to ask about that Dafne course see if I can do it again, as it was years ago last time I did it. What's made it difficult I've had a lot of ops etc on eye and been on a huge amount of drops for eye pressure including timilol, dexafree, monopost, iopidine, and take a tablet called diamox to reduce pressure in the eye. Was being seen regular by eye clinic, then due to COVID wasn't seen for a long time and sort of left, was seeing flashing lights had a detached retina etc but they kept sending me to ae, after a long while of kept going they eventually found out what was happening and now there trying there best to save vision in my right eye, but I am not totally sure how much is diabetic related, or the side effects of the stuff I take. IE today legs keep going weak, faint dizzyness all-sorts so can't do much so back on the settee again.
