MDJunction to me

"MDJ is an integral part of my everyday life. Since joining in 2010, I have met so many amazing people. It is truly incredible to be able to share good times and not so good times with others who face the same health challenges. And MDJ has support groups for every condition I have. I don't know of anywhere else that can offer that. I love that I can learn from others as well as offer my own experiences for others to learn from." (jaguarandcubs)

MCS equipment and RP

hi everyone,

I read some people discuss about an equipment called MCS (MicroCurrent Stimulation) to help for RP. I looked at the manufacturer's site and it is written that "MCS may be helpful for: Retinitis Pigmentosa, Stargardt's Disease, Cone-Rod Dystrophy, other types of retinal dystrophies."

Is there anyone who have tried this machine or heard anything about the relation of this machine and the RP?

and can anyone brighten me about OCT gives what about our eyes condition? Which one of the tests tells us about the progressive of RP or how good/bad is it?

Some friends known to me tried it and they donot have any possitive results. One had used it for 4 years but no effect.
