So last week i lost the vision briefly in my right eye which has since bought on some major anxiety, i called and spoke to my opticians and he booked me in for the next day, he done a very thorough check and took some amazing pics at the back of my eye, he said everything looked good at that he had no real cause for concern but as a precaution would refer me to my GP to check i wasnt having a TIA, i hadnt heard of them before so of course i did a little research BIG mistake as i have now self diagnosed as having had one and i am now going to have a stroke, i didnt have any other symptons that i can think of that happened there and then so wasnt sure if the loss of vision would be accompanied but other symptons however since i have had tingling in my fingers but not sure if thats anxiety speaking?? I have a doctors app on wednesday to discuss so kinda hoping for the best x
