Dear All,

It was 10 Jan 2005 ,I had my first heart attack at 49.I was on heavy
dose of storvas for few days due to my stent implant.45 days after
starting the medicine,while watching TV,I felt the loss of focus on a
small spot identical in both eyes.I nearly panicked and try to read
newspaper,but the words were out of focus.Slowly ,Both the spots grew
into a semicirle.Within 3minutes it took the shape of a Glowing
electric bulb filament of 0.5 centimeter diameter and increasing in
size.Although a beautiful sight,created lot of fear of going blind at
an earning age with family to support. After 20 minutes,it had grown
big enough to reach outer perifre of both eyes on left side.It slowly
dropped out of simultaneously from both eyes.I cannot described the
pleasure of sight of words in newspaper after the episode.

After series of checks by opthomologist,nuorologist,I got no clear
answer.

After 15 days another episode in office after some stressful moment
lasting 25-30 minutes.

thereafter regularly at 1-2 months interval.Frequency was surprisingly
linked with my storvas dosage.i.e.
STORVAS 40 Mg/day......................................
15-Days to 30 days

STORVAS 20 Mg/day .......................................
30- 45 days

STORVAS 10Mg/
day 45-60 days

STORVAS 5Mg/
day 60-125 days.

I donot understand the relation as storvas in high dosage has resulted
in optic nerve degeneration in Dogs during trials.Maybe it has
something to do with optic nerve.

I thought my ancestors were monkeys not dogs ha ha

I am happy to locate this forum to share my experience and feel the
comradeship in aura.
