Thank you, Angela! ?I’m pretty sure that about a third of the people we work with have it, they just don’t talk about it. Just yesterday, I was taking a friend / former client shopping, she has macular degeneration, and said she saw a mouse running across the floor. I was distracted and didn’t say anything, but later she said oh, those are floaters.

So I told her that many people have these hallucinations and wondered if she has any. “Of course,” she said.?

I’ve known her for several years, and she has never mentioned it.

Thanks so much Dona, as usual, you’re a great source of info.?

My husband has CBS and we’ve found that it can grow worse with stress. He also has PTSD and TBI, a regular acronym soup. He refuses to tell even our GP, who is generally very curious about such things and not judgmental.?

Please do share. Kent said that if it helps anyone he would be happy to be interviewed about his CBS, as long, of course, that such an interview is not made public.?
