pseudo tumor/cervical disk herniations

Diagnosis of pseudo tumor two years ago after experiencing surges of pressure in my head accompanied by total lack of coordination, temporary total loss of vision, headache, shaking, often uncontrolable, depth perception loss, inability to put one foot in front of the other and always accompanied with a very stiff neck. These episodes would subside after about 5 minutes. Treated with Diamox with some success.  Severe bout of kidney stones likely attributed to Diamox by a Nephrologist after testing. Referred to neurosurgeon for a shunt. With the absence of papilidema, loss of visual field and debilitating headaches, he won't put a shunt in.  He questions the diagnosis.  A cervical MRI to rule out a dural tear reveals C4-5 & C5-6 herniations, both central and compressing and flattening the cord.  Narrowing of the canal to 6mm. Some signal increase in the cord suggesting myelopathic change. Two years of testing include blood work, cerebral angiogram, MRI's, CT scans, Xrays, VER testing, Visual Field, EEG's, Holter monitoring, EKG's, Evoked potentials, several umbar punctures with opening pressures consistently 27 - 32. Neurologist say herniations are likely the cause. Neurosurgeon says no, it's not.  He said I would have had "catastrophic lumbar punctures resulting in paralysis".  Any opinions, comments, experiences and invited.
