• Episodic dark spots when first waking with stargardt's?

• My husband was originally diagnosed with MEWDs three years ago because he had episodic spots in his vision when he first woke up- but he was very atypical and no one was convinced of this diagnosis. Last year his vision started deteriorating steadily and eventually the amazing doctors we've been working with decided he has Stargardt's. However, his genetic test came back negative. The doctors still believe he has stargardts though. Despite having the frist signs at 40 heseemsto be a classic case of it.
  This week he started having another bout of seeing a dark spot in his central vision when he firsts wakes (these always coincide with periods of intense stress for him). Anyway, does anyone have experience with this? thank you.
