Sue Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 Hi everyone!!Amongst all of my other problems, one thing I have always looked forward to even though I don't post much anymore is reading posts on this site. Now I am lucky if I can sit and read one or two posts. I get extremely dizzy trying to read anything on the screen and have to keep looking away!! Does this happen to anyone else?? Typing isn't bad, because I made my daughter type this HugsSue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michiganjan Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 Sue,I used to have trouble like that. I used to use an anti-glare screen over the computer screen. You can buy them at computer stores. And try adjusting the contrast on the monitor.Michigan Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DancingLight Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 Sue,I have an incredibly difficult time reading on the computer. And, I cannot read books or magazines at all anymore. I do all books on tape.I don't have any good answers...just wanted you to know that you are not alone.I usually log on here and there...throughout the day...like for five minutes at a time. Just depends on the day. I have days when I can stay online for a while and days when I cannot be online at all.I have more trouble with reading than with typing...don't know why, probably b/c I can type and look away from the screen.I often just choose one or two posts that grab my attention and that's it for the day. It may seem then, that I am 'playing favorites', but that is not the case...it's just that the energy to read more posts is not there. I just do what I can do...I also print all of my emails to read in parts and to re-read until I absorb all of the info. It's much easier for me to read them on paper than on the screen...Hope this makes you feel a little less alone...Emily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corina Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 Hi Sue,I have trouble reading as well, not always though. And at times when I'm able to read I can't understand Aaarrrrrggghhhhh this POTS.I like the suggestion Jan made, thanks Jan, I will try it. And as Emily, when I want to read (and understand) I print it!Corina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgan617 Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 I have a terrible time, both reading and typing. It's horrible in the morning, then gets a little better, then in the evening is awful again. morgan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
