've had PD for 11 years now, since I was 34 years old. I recall it beginning with a massive migraine.
Something I've noticed occurring more recently. I get these headaches that are followed by waking up after a nights sleep and opening my eyes to what look like dead motionless transparent cells=like you would see in a microscope, in my eyes( once or twice they were wiggling). They disappear as soon as I blink-or move my gaze. Ophthalmologist sees no issues with my eyes and my dr. says ,"hmm, interesting". Internet research attempts turn up no match. Thanks, Kathy |

Sounds like it might be floaters. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/eye-floaters/DS01036

Not a true floater since it doesn't move, what I assume is the first stage of a cataract in my left eye showed up a few months ago. Like you I was diagnosed 10 years ago.
