I don't mind the questions at all, Denise. The docs say that I will lose central vision in my treated eye at about 18 months from the treatment date, so perhaps another year. I've completely accepted that eventuality. It is the possibility of mets, which go to the liver or lungs that makes me the greatest misery. At the time of treatment, there was a complete discussion about whether to do the plaque radiotherapy or remove my eye, so I accepted early on that I would not keep vision in that eye. There are also conditions which can arise after so much radiation that would still mean removing my eye. Not my wish, but still not the worst....it's the mets that concern me. You are a sweetheart for writing and I appreciate you a huge bunch! Hope things are improving for you and the steroid weaning is going well. Hugs to you, Denise.
