After I reported on this drug called Avastin, I found that it has been taken of the market due to medical side effects of this drug. I am experiencing these side effects. Actually, I discovered alot of medical problems I had shortly after the injections into my eyes. I experienced migraine headaches, sinus problems and scarring of the sinuses , along with additional hemorrhaging in my eyes. One of the things I discovered in reading on the Internet is that my chances of a brain aneurysm is increased by 20 to 30% .. So do yourself a favor before any Dr. wants to inject your eyes and do some research on what it is that he wants to put in your eyes whether it be Avastin or another steroid some kind .. You can Google “side effects of Avastin”. I see on the Internet, that there are some class-action suits against the maker of Avastin. Although the drug seems to work for people with macular degeneration, my disease was branch vein retinal occlusions which as I stated in the column that eventually became blind .so do your research and get a second opinion as a lot of doctors in Sweden, France and at other European countries recommend that when you have hemorrhaging in your eyes that you not receive injections. They say eventually the bleeding will be absorbed and you would be a lot better off and even possibly regain your eyesight back to normal.
