Vision, Diabetes and HCG

I was reading Dawna's post from Friday about blurred vision, and something hit me: When I had my eyes checked the other day, the doctor said that my vision has actually improved! Not enough to go without glasses or contacts, but at least enough to change the prescription up some.

Since I am at an extremely high risk for diabetes (family history on both sides), my endcrinologist has always kept close tabs on my blood sugar, which has hovered in the "prediabetes" area for several years. I had a feeling that my worsening vision was due to this condition and my steady weight gain, but I had no idea that it could potentially be reversed. So, this appears to be another unexpected benefit of the protocol. It would be interesting to see if anyone else has noticed this benefit, and also to see some "science" about this.

Thanks, Dawna, for bringing the subject up - this is amazing!
