• hi my name is dana. I'm 19 years old i was diagnosed with Rp when i was 15. i live in michigan and i'm a freshman at Northwestern Michigan College.i no longer drive. I have no night vision and side vision. I'm starting to lose my color vision. I'm new to the message boards and i guess i'm just looking for any advice dealing with living with RP as a college student or any new information on RP.

• hey dana,
  
  sorry to hear you are having to deal with this rp stuff...i too have rp and live in michigan. i was diagnosed at 15 as well but it did not start getting real bad until mid 20's. i am 35 now with no peripheral vision or night vision and i too am losing my color vision.. not fun times indeed...
  i check this site every now and then .i use to come on alot but they changed their message board format so alot of people left..if you go to www.mdjunction.com and look for the rp forum you will find a whole bunch of us..and i know their are a few girls your age on there too.
