Wow Robert,
That is quite a list isn't it?
On another note. I like the way you sign
yourself as TM Class of 1994. I guess that makes me TM Class of
2006.

OF INTERESTING NOTE, I HAVE HAD AN EYE INFECTION OF LATE, AND THE EYE
DOCTOR TOLD ME I HAVE CATARACTS PRETTY BAD IN ONE EYE. HE SAID THAT
STEROIDS CAN CAUSE THESE.
SINCE I HAVE READ ON HERE THAT SOME ARE TAKING STEROIDS, YOU MIGHT LQQK
INTO THESE SIDE EFFECTS. I KNOW YOU MIGHT HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO TAKE
THEM, BUT FYI.
OH WOW !!!! I TAKE LOTS OF THESE DRUGS.

then what???
I have the same question: is the increase pressure part of my active
disease cycle? It makes sense, but I did not realize that the
increased pressure could bother my vision after a while. My Dr. keeps
asking me "how's your vision"...

My last tap showed increased pressure. My
neuro called it Pseudo Tumor Cerebri and said, "Well now we have something
else to add to your list of rare neurological disorders." I said, " I am
not looking to expand the list."
He loves the diagnosis part of his
job. I try to prevent him from using those skills any more than he
has to.
But it can evidently cause
blindness and so I have to have my eyes checked for damage from the
increased pressure on the retina. It can also cause headaches but I
cant say that thats my case. I have migraines that come and go but they
were here before the TM or the PTC.
I am wondering now if an increase in
pressure is part of the active disease cycle and if its common to TM or
MSers when a tap is done during an attack?
