I was nearsighted and got laxic (sp) and vision was blurred but this is different. Things can be superimpossed images or ghost like.

I am on all of the meds and have no idea which came first, the blurred vision or the meds... (There might have been a joke in there somewhere) Anyway, a lot of us TM'ers are over the age of 40, so blurred vision might be a combination of the disease and/or our turning "middle-aged". May the Lord to whom you look up to, with grateful eyes, be with you, and keep you safe . I love you, Jude In a message dated 7/11/2009 12:25:04 P.M.

Only I did not know what was happening to me. Around a few month before. Meds did not make the difference. It got worse after the TM. I only take Baclofen, no pain meds. The most logical explenation for the eye-site problem was the age, around 43. But just a year before my eyes were checked by the medical serveces of my company. This discussion has come by every few years, look into the archives and you will see, that what we has found out. Blured vion is TM related, and medication has very little to do with that. Some meds will make a little difference, the mail course is TM. Also the age. Most of us are in the 40's or older. Yes guys, you are getting old. So it is a difficult discussion with the doctors, they simply keep it on the age, while we know, compairing this problem with eachother that it is also TM related. Wim from Holland From: [email protected] Date: Tue, 7 Jul 2009 21:46:22 -0400 To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: [TMIC] Blured vision During the course of my medication regimen, I had taken medication that has caused me to have blurred vision. I know there has been others who have complained about having their vision impaired due to medication. My question is this: has anyone stopped taking the medication and have their vision improve or return to normal?

It helps the sharp nerve pain going down my legs. The doc gives it to me in my lower back and it goes down to lower calf. They use different things on me depending on where the pain is. I know you were asking Ella, but I jumped in too. It is my pain management doc who does this.
