My problem is open angle glaucoma. My intraocular pressure is very high (26-28). I have only 30% vision left in one eye. I had been treated in Russia before but nothing helped and I continued to develop glaucoma with my vision deteriorating significantly over the past 8 years. My daughter lives in Singapore and I saw a really good ophthalmologist there who really helped me in keeping glaucoma from developing. I have been prescribed 3 different eye drops (xalatan and timolol) that have drained my eye fluid. However,I suffered from the side effects of these eye drops, I always felt irritation in my eyes, blurred vision, red eyes and sometimes burning pain in my eyes.Also I’m not sure if it’s the glaucoma or the treatment, but I’ve been feeling a bit tired and low energy.Even my family and friends didn’t recognize me because I was so active and energetic.For the past five or so years, I have been more passive and always want to sleep and lie down.Headaches and neck stiffness and pain were my friends day and night. Lately I have been experiencing numbness from shoulder to palm.
We discovered Vaidya Nithi’s practice in Langkawi in 2011 when I was looking for a massage place due to neck and shoulder stiffness and headaches. At that time he diagnosed me and prescribed me a diet and more cardio exercise. This was the exact opposite of what the doctors had instructed me to do, especially since I was asked not to move my head.At that time I tried massages and shiro dhara which helped me a lot with my pain and headaches.I started a diet and in six months I lost about 10 kg. Everyone noticed the difference.However, I have not done any treatment with Vaidya Nithi.My glaucoma has progressed. The doctors asked me to use eye drops and wait until they could do a surgery, but wait until then.My vision deteriorated and I could not drive a car properly, which I still do, but very cautiously.As we were planning our trip to Malaysia this year, we finally got to meet Nithi in Kuala Lumpur, and since he was in Europe, I wanted to go too, but even on our trip to Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic, it was on.The main route of our trip. This year also I didn’t have enough time and took only 2 weeks of PanchaKarma treatment.My headaches, stiffness in my neck and shoulders are gone, but I still feel a slight pain in my arm.I have given up all eye drops and now live only on Ayurvedic decoction given to me by Niti.I understand that my problem cannot be solved 100% quickly, but I am determined to follow a diet, protect my eyes, completely detoxify my body, and take herbs.It will help me a lot in glaucoma treatment.I want to do this to get my vision as I have an 8 year old daughter and I have to drive to and from school.I hope to see good results
