This may not be news. But before I got an actual diagnosis every doctor just piled on pain releivers to no end, seems like at one time I had a prescription for all kinds except for morphine and fentanyl. I didn't need most of them and filled them and just kept them for "later". Now that I have an actual diagnosis which one of the known symptoms is pain it's like the one thing nobody will touch with a 10 foot pole.

Speaking of eyes I have never had an issue being a diabetic for 50 years now. They used to use dye in your blood to look at the vessels and now they use a photo of whatever tech. I can tell you what is a pain the ass. I almost wished I had bad eyesight in both eyes. Eye doctors can't leave it alone. The retina comes back okay every time and they simply skip over the entire "have a lesion on my optic nerve of the bad idea" entirely.

I got diagnosed first via just general exam but they had to put the dye in me to really check the vessels. That sucked ass
