Natural Remedies for Macular Degeneration: Top Research-Based Suppleme

Yes, I put Mom on 1000 gr of Turmeric for her Lupus/Arthritis pain she was 93, and it messed w her blood as she is a Bleeder. It says that on side effects. I am glad it turned out ok. I will say my dental tech told me she put ice on her hands and feet between clients for RH pain, and started taking 1,000 MSM and 1,000 Turmeric a day and no pain for 4 mo when I saw her.

I am so shocked to see the reference to avoid taking Ibuprofen if you suffer from macular degeneration! Also the turmeric. I suffer from fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis, and my family doctor took me off Celebrex and put me on Advil (Ibuprofen) about 6 months ago. I have also been trying to include more turmeric in my diet to help with the inflammation in my body. Coincidentally, my vision has been deteriorating. I have wet mac. in one eye and dry in the other. I have noticed more deterioration in the wet eye (I've been taking the injections for six years). Can anyone suggest what would be the best painkiller to take? Thanks. BTW, I want to avoid opiods.

Interesting. Last year I was taking tumeric regularly because of all the benefits reported. In June I had a needle biopsy because or a lump seen on a mamogram. Everyone in the room was very surprised when the doctor inserted the needle into the lump and blood squirted out, running down my neck and into my hair. It was quite a mess and I was told it mas not a typical occurrence. I decided to stop the tumeric because I was facing surgery. A couple of months later I went in for an eye exam and I had wet macular degeneration in both eyes. I can't help but wonder if might have had an eye bleed if I had continued the tumeric.

My Mom suffers from macular degeneration. She can't take nsaids because of that, but she thought it would be OK to take turmeric for her allergies. 4 days after she started she had an eye bleed & is now blind in that eye. I can't remember exactly what she said, but the reason turmeric works for allergies is because it does something to your blood. Be aware.
