Recent diagnosis of slight uveitisUveitis. Have been very ill with late disseminatedDisseminated tuberculosis, LD in nervous system. Diagnosed 3.5 years after illness began. Treated one year with oral antibiotics, mild improvement. Five months of IV infusion of Ceftiaxone has brought improvements (not well yet) over past year following ending of treatment. Am terrified of uveitisUveitis since it can be complication of lyme. Doctors here in Anchorage not very lyme literate.
What should I pay attention to with the eye? Are there good treatments now to prevent loss of sight? What dr. speciality should I try for management? Where are there good sources (not brief) about this eye complication, things to consider in further diagnosis, and treatment. Thank you, Sandy in AK
