In reply to Anyone see SPOTS?, posted by JonW on June 3, 2002, at 19:04:36
Jon, this is going to sound pretty strange & I sure wish I had saved the source of the info but I can't remember where I read it. It's not something like the National Inquirer as my preferred reading is science journals.
The article stated that if you look up at a bright light background (like the sky) & pay attention, you can see little 'spots' of light (but not real bright spots), like small commas swimming about in your view.
These were supposedly caused by white blood cells passing through the capillaires in your retina, triggering these many small spots. Supposedly, the better your immune system, the more spots you could notice swarming about.
It sounded VERY weird to me, but when I stopped to look I could see them swarming about. Whether their origin is what is claimed, I'm not certain. I've asked others if they can see them, & most who pay attention to detail & look for them, can too. Maybe the Nardil has just triggered something that makes you more aware of them - that is, if these are the same spots we're talking about???
