anyone had blindness with autoimmune hepatitis or drug toxicity of liver?

by stressed mom, Jan 19, 2002 12:00AM
My 2 year old lost her vision in April of 2001.  All the 31 doctors that we have been to can find is high liver functions. The biopsy shows drug toxicity probably due to an antibiotic.  The blood work points to autoimmune hepatitis.  They are not sure so we are treating with steroids and autoimmune meds.  Please contact me if you know of anyone else who has lost vision due to this and any info on autoimmune or drug toxicity due to antiobiotics would be greatly appreciated.  Email address is ***@****.  

thanks.
