Hi Mickozee

I know exactly what you mean. I suspect beans really helped temporarily. Why it was not permanent, I do not know. I hope to repeat the same after not eating them for several days, then trying to recreate that day again. Coffe shock therapy =) + beans made the exact same way like that day + running and than right afterward swiming. I´ll let you know what happens. I´ve noticed a real positive overall effect on the body when exercising the way I do now. First running than swiming. Something happens when you submerge yourself under water after the run and start training other muscles. I notice a mild positive effect also on the floaters, regularly, but nothing like that day. They were almost twice as thin that day, and really transparent, much more than usual. For the life of me, I do not know what caused it... I´ll wait and see if it happens again and then I´ll have more to speculate on.

Smile, the Bioptron guy, really did to me sound like the floaters were gone after his Bioptron therapy. He´s saying he does not know if it is his brain tuning them out or that they really disapeared, but the fact is, he sounded like they did go away to the point he didn´t notice them anymore. He gave several clear and realistic answers untill someone hijacked that thread. If you try posting in that thread it´s not possible. I tried registering and could not do it. But what Smile said back then really sounds like honest description of what he experienced. The thing that makes me think it was not a mere coincidence is that he is saying that he noticed big improvement already after the first treatment, on a bright sunny day too. He´s recommending everyone to try it and reiterating it really did help him.

I want to remain realistic too. But when the modern medicine community is not doing their job properly and there are such huge misunderstanding even between MDs themselves, not to mention between the patients and the doctors, what are we to do than try alternative ways. The "ophthalmologist" I talked to doesn´t have a clue what I am experiencing. He thinks it´s the harmless floaters many people have... the transparent ones or the thinner ones or the ones on the periphery of the vision field, that are far from as debilitating as the ones that we here seem to have. They should have their facts straight and stop doing even bigger damage to their patients instead of actually helping them understand their situation and providing solid information, straight from the professionals mouth. Instead, we seem to be better informed than they are. It should, of course, be the other way around.

I really appreciate all of you that are out there, trying and experiencing things and feelings similar to mine. It helps tremendously knowing that I am not alone in this. Together we just might stumble onto something. We seem to be left to our own devices.

I´ll never give up. The cure will come one day. It might be tomorrow, it might be in one year, it might be in 10 years (hope not that long!!!), but it will come. It depends not only on the doctors, but on us as well. We have to push stronger, both on the self-help front and on the "move of your fat ophthalmologist asses and HELP US FOR GODS SAKE!!!" front.

Clear, blue skies again...
