Hey guys,

This isn't fitness related...unless you wanna consider I can't see very well when driving to the gym at nights.

Quick question: has anyone experienced any vision issues associated with fibro? If so what specifically was going on?

Many thanks,
Char

    when I get those Fibro fog days my vision is a lot worse than normal. I also have a thyroid condition which i have been told can affect your vision when the levels fluctuate.

    Thanks for responding!! At my last optometrist visit I was told my issues focusing were as a result of long term antidepressant use. Since then I've gone almost entirely night blind. This is what is really concerning me now :( I can't seem to peg it to just one illness but fibro seems to cover just about everything of late so I was curious to hear if anyone was having a similar issue.

    oh yeh- my vision goes up and down like a yo-yo. I have so many off the peg cheapo reading classes around the house and they are all different strengths from 1.75 to 3.00!! i only drive at night if its really important as i cant see so well when its dark.
    interesting about anti depressants. I.m on amitryptaline (dont think its spelled right) and never have been told it affect vision before.
