UK Keratoconus Self-Help and Support Association

Just curious. How many people have other atopic problems besides KC? I have asthma and ampicillin allergy since birth. 19 years down the peaceful road, and a Hydrop in left eye. Aw, well..

I voted two because these are all that I know about:

pollen from the oilseed rape plant
perervative used in eye drops

I don't have any allergies and thankfully only had asthma up until I was around 12-13ish, it was a couple of years later that KC was first diagnosed. Actually back then, a doctor had told me having KC was related to having asthma. I had asked was it because of the inhalers being some sort of general buildup side effect and his reply was, KC is just more common in male asthmatics!

Much different these days though.

I went 2, my eczema is under control 99% of the time so most never know I have it and asthma is the same.

Only shos signs of asthma when i have a sever case.

Do not show clinical signs of each, but had bad asthma in teens and as a real youngster was mumified to help control the exzema.

The fact we have had these conditions I think in itslef is a link.

I've added a "none" option to the poll. It is at least slightly scientific now!

But the sample is still low. Maybe the 'none' option will attract more rsponsents. It will be really interesting to see how this ends up. good initiative Conner.

Thanks
