| This is regarding my mother in law, age 84, who is general good health, works in her garden, drives well generally active. She has most recently developed red and purple spots before her eyes. She has seen her doctor, who initially was going to send her to another doctor in 2 weeks. When she called back that they were increasing, he referred her to another doctor who comes into our town weekly and will see her this Wednesday 9/19/07. She is thinking this is an emergent issue and I'm not sure it isn't, bu I'm also not sure she is making something out of nothing. Could this be a detached retina? She thinks she heard something about macular degeneration, but this doesn't seem to fit the definition. What do you think, generally, as I know you can't give specifics having not seen her. |
