Anybody else have Ocular Histoplasmosis?


Are there any sites that indicate what things that you should avoid? I know going over 8,000 feet (not in a pressurized plane) was one. I found that out after going up past 9,000 feet on a volcano-fortunately no problems. I am blind in one eye from this disease and hope to go to Florida amusement parks. How many G's is safe for a roller coaster, for instance? Thanks!

Have fun on the roller coaster! And don't worry about it. As you probably know ocular histoplasmosis is a fungal infection of the retina. Once the body has responded to the infection and your immune system has gotten it under control, seldom do you ever see a reactivation of the infection. As long as you do not become immunocompromised you should remain stable EVEN ON A ROLLER COASTER! Have fun!

no dear!! good luck
