Yes, thanks you for being so helpful. image

I am from the US, Ohio to be specific. New York is not all that far at all. Of course I am going to wait this out for some time and see how I feel about it! But I feel almost that, if my feelings did not change by this summer, or at the very least by the time I leave university in two summers, I would be very eager to at least talk to some doctors. The surgery does not scare me in the face of the alternative-- being a smart, healthy young guy... except balding and with specks flicking around in his eyeballs all the time. image I am simply too young and have too much life to live.

This thread makes me feel so much better about my future. When I first started reading I thought that no matter what I would be stuck with this for life. The idea that there could be treatment in the future, especially if things get worse (which is what scares me the most!) is so very comforting to me. For now I will try to carry on with my life.
