Scotoma

Hello, I am 27 and I have been getting scotoma since I was 24.  I get about 10-100 new scotoma per day and they usually go away in about 10 seconds.  Every now and then (~once a week) I get a spot that doesn't go away,  The spots are small but they are really making it hard to work and enjoy life and I fear that I will soon have one in the middle of my field of view.

I have seen many doctors who are stumped by my problem so I don't imagine that you will have any more answers.  On your site (see link below), I read the discussion of two people that seem to have the exact same thing that I do.  I was wonding if you would have a way to forward them my email address ( ttaves (at) hotmail (dot) com) ) so that we could discuss.  Neither I nor any of my doctors have seen anything like this so it would be good to talk to others with the same problem.

Thank you, Tim

I believe that website rules do not allow forwarding any e mail address. The best you can do is hope they read your above message.

Thanks anyway for your help.  I will post a more general message on this site to see if I can get replies from anyone with a similar condition.
