When my SOM symptoms began: September 2004
When diagnosed: September 2004
Type of doctor: Neuro Opthamologist
SOM eye - Right or Left: Right
My symptoms: double vision, blurred at times, shakey right eye, sometimes I get headaches; right eye tires easily which then makes me very sleepy
Symptom triggers, if any: anything that agitates my neck; it happens when I sit up in bed at night and read and do not have enough support on my neck. If a chiroprator tries to adjust my neck, that will set it off as well.
Wear glasses? What type/kind: reading glasses only
Is SOM eye weaker or stronger than "good" eye?: not sure
Treatments for SOM: Prescription meds: Yes or No: No meds prescribed as of yet. Doctor felt med available would not work for me.
