Guest guest Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Hi gang, I finally found a new opthalmalogist and went for the plugs in my tear ducts. This guy was good but treated me like I had never had plugs and did not know anything about dry eyes. He only put in one plug.he said to see if it was the plug that helped my symptoms or the other things he suggested (very strongly). I think it was to get another payment from my health insurance. He said I definitely had dry eyes (duh) and probably was from my rheumatoid but I also had rosacea of the eye lids and face. I assumed this but know there is no cure. He suggested. as I already do. the lid scrubs with baby shampoo and stressed warm to hot compresses 2 times a day. He said to open some of the glands that are clogged from the eye fluids. He also suggested 2 new OTC drops. One was OPTIVE moisturizing dry eye solution and the other I can't remember. The reason I am writing this is because of the collagen 1 & 3 powder I have been taking. About the 6 week time I found I had no more dry eye symptoms(yes I still went for the plugs) and I was waking up with less and less morning eye crunches. I hate to jinx me but I am also pain free in my neck and back. I was outside with hubby raking dirt for our garden and the next morning I paid for it with a bad " spot " in my back. Usually this takes a while to get resolved with a lot of pressure point done by hubby. The next morning I woke with no pain and did not even get a back rub the day before. I am not pushing the product but will keep reporting any other good effects. For cosmetic results please write to me personally. cooky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
