1983, 1985, and 1986.

First op was in 1974. They use lasers now - I sure do wish
they'd used them back in the "good old bad old days."

MD is nothing to mess around with - have you looked into
adjunctive nutritional therapies? Higher - than - 100% RDA
doses of Vitamin A have been shown to be effective, and I
have to believe there is some validity to the claims that
gingko biloba can be helpful.

Too, for diabetes, you might want to look at the Life Extension
Foundation's protocol for diabetes tretment: http://www.lef.org.

N Acetyl Cysteine is an outstanding therapy - I use NAC myself
to treat cellular degeneration. Reader's Digest published a story
about NAC a few months back.

As Joe Soucheray says, "Good luck."
