I finally got my prescription of mestinon and just took my first dose an hour ago. The first difference I noticed is that my eyes could focus better. And my arm and legs feel more normal. I hope this is just not wishful thinking.

Here is an experiment you can try if you like, Kathie.
When I was taking Mestinon in the summer, my close up vision improved temporarily on average by over 20 cm after taking Mestinon and then gradually deteriorated as the medication would start to wear off. The book was moving further and further away from my nose! My optician was so relieved it wasn´t his calculations as you can imagine (too many changes in glasses prescriptions in just a few months!) Distance vision sharpened like a razor with Mestinon and double image shadows disappeared completely for a few hours. Also Kathie, my arms turned from garden spades into feather dusters after my first dose All the best...... Anacrusis Last edited by Anacrusis; 01-31-2013 at 03:02 AM. |
