Yes, I used actually three different injections types over a time period of four years.

My best guess, it is in remission due to exercise, diet changes and large reduction of blood pressure.

Awesome idea, hope it progresses fast enough and to get rid of the injection that also creat floaters and trauma. Cheers from Oz🇦🇺

Thank you for your work and research. With me,, I was diagnosed over 4 years ago with wet and had high blood pressure at the same time. Now my blood pressure is down to. 125/65 on average and my exercise is over trekkng 20 km each day and my wet AMD appears to be in remission. I have not had a shot in over 2 years.

Questions-is there a direct link to high blood pressure or with lack of exercise?

Hi, thanks for your question. People with high blood pressure are one and half times more likely to have AMD than those with normal blood pressure. You can find more information on our website on the causes of AMD - www.macularsociety.org/macular-disease/macular-conditions/age-related-macular-degeneration/
