after a fluorescein andiogram, she saw that theres a lot of blood in my eyes, dahil sa pumutok na mga Blood vessel courtesy of my diabetes and hbp. And there's a retinal detachment on my left eye, basically there's a blood between my eyeball and retina that's why the retina is starting to detach. Didn't know na may ibat ibang klase pa pala ng optha, my 1st is a general optha, si she sent me to an optha specializing sa retina.

the 2nd optha made me wait for 2 weeks to let the blood subside, 1 week medication with Hepasil to stop blood from flooding my eyes. then he started laser treatment to my retina. I don't really understand the exact explanation for the laser for retina, but it seems to protect it from blood or veins.

Anyway after 2 laser sessions, medyo nawawala na yung blood from my right eye but there are still blood somewhere in the middle Kaya hirap pa rin makakita. the left eye is worst, the doctor wasn't able to penetrate it with the laser in 1st session, and only penetrated a little on 2nd session. Because of the blood between the retina and the eyeball. I might still need 2 more sessions of laser.

The doctor said that I would need a vitrectomy surgery for my left eye.

I hope it all goes well. Learned my lesson already, I'm not ready to be a PWD at an early age of 38. Nung umpisa eh hindi ako makabasa, di ako makapag drive, I was really considering suicide pag permanent ang condition ko. Ayaw kong maging pabigat sa family ko at an early age.

You also had a health scare earlier this year, far worst than yours, so i know youll pull through. I dont want to share this but for someone whos thinking of suicide, ano ba naman yung time ko to share my experience.

I had an accute pancreatitis cause by drinking too much alcohol causing my kidneys shut down, my creatinine was 1600 from 115....i needed to have diaylsis 4 times just to remove the bloat i had and to clean my system. Btw...life changing was i had a near death experience, people where fetching me already.....i came to realize that every thing in this world is superficial, all the troubles and worries, that doesnt mean anything, whatever you believe in, doon din tayo pupunta, i wont expound on what i saw on the other side. Btw last april i had an operation, they removed my gall bladder, probably caused my accute pancreatitis.

Pls count ang nakasabit sakin dito....i was bloated there, 3 days na ako di nag wiwiwi. I also have a tube on my neck and a catheter sa pee pee

Last weeks pics..medyo naka bawi na, pero not yet a 100%

My creatinine is normal now, i have no maintanance, malapit na uli ako mag ka 6 pack at may crush yung classmate ng anak ko sakin...hintayin kita

Your NDE is scarry. People fetching you? Wow, so those things are true? Agree on not losing hope though. Determination and commitment is key.

Thank you for sharing your story. That's why you are familiar with creatinine. Didn't know gallbladder can be removed. My diabetologist had me 2d echoed and saw stones on my gallbladder. He didn't said anything more about it and didn't give me medicine for it. I figured I can handle that when I got my eye sight again.

Although my trials isn't over yet, I promised my self I'll treat this as a 2nd lease in life as I have considered going half blind as death sentence. I'll do 180 on my health. And like you I think I would reconsider my priorities after this.

Baka baliktad sir. hehehehe.

Right now kasi naghahabol ang planta sa mga backlogs... lakas ng amoy ng sealant saka paints.

I think bumabalik nanaman yung alergic ko dun sa chemical na ginagamit namin pag naamoy ko or nagstart eto nung tumigil ako pagbabasketball every sunday and walking every morning.

Need ko na ata mag exercise ulit.

Yes, they were 3 of them, kaya nagbago yung perspective ko bout religion and people,
Our troubles are superficial and situation is temporary, in the back of our minds, we always have a nagging question if the afterlife is real....that experience validates it.

Please learn from my mistake. Pinabayaan ko ang diabetes at high blood pressure ko. Until one day I woke up with blurred and cloudy vision. Kinatatamaran ko dati pumunta sa doctor dahil ayaw koag Absent sa trabaho. Now here I am not able to work. My recovery might take a month or more, which means matagal pa ko di makapagtrabaho.

One positive thing I can take away from this, is I can teach my kids proper nutrition, diabetes, how to take care of themselves at an early age. Unlike me wala akong natutunan sa diabetes, prevention, healthy foods. Both sides of their parents are diabetic so it would help to teach them what Im only learning now.

Sir i recommend you take USANA Supplements to maintain normal blood sugar and blood pressure.

BTT :

It feel's really good that you can maximize your time and your scheduled activities went very well kahit may ibang plan na di nangyari.

That was my excuse before, i didnt track what i was eating, coz i can use this or that to cleanse my organs, if i treat the source of the problem and start eating right, do i need any suppliments?

I felt worried kanina nung umulan ng napakalakas a few hours ago, resulting to flooding sa labas ng bahay namin. I am also worried na hindi agad ako makasakay going to work due to people na nagaabang din ng masasakyan. Buti na lang UV Express yung nasakyan ko at dumaan sa shortcuts. pero pagdating naman sa Pasig, hindi naman umuulan (or walang bakas ng basang kalye)
