Guest My time Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 Hi, I went to the eye Dr for a check up and he saw something behind my retina. ? two tumors. Iwent to a specialist and he thought he saw something. I had a MRI of the brain and it was clean no sign of anything. I take that as good news!! I need to go to Boston and see a specialist. Wouldn't the MRI be more specific than an eye exam. I was hoping someone maty have an answer. Thanks MY time Quote
Carleen Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 I would take it as good news too. I'm not an expert or even a doctor, but I would think an MRI would be more precise than an eye exam. But regardless I will keep you in my prayers that this specialist confirms that your head is empty Quote
Darrell Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 I agree totally with Carleen. The MRI is much more precise than an eye exam. You're in my thoughts and prayers. Darrell Quote
joanie55 Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 I would definitely take it further. During an eye exam, my doctor was actually the first to "see something" that he wanted my internist to call him about. At the time, I didn't think anything of it, but there is a lot they can see through eyes. Pretty amazing. Clean brain is always a good thing, but I would certainly want to know what was seen.

Welthy Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 I'd want to pursue this one further just to be on the safe side. Hope it turns out to be a red herring. Welthy Quote
