Idiopathic Intercrainial Hypertention (UGH )

I just want to rant,,,  
  The Head pain is back. (Headache) just what I needed ! My Neuro took me off the
Acetazolamide that treats the Fluid from building up.Here we are 3 1/2 days later
with that nasty headache that IIH causes.So Its back on the Phone this morning
to call my Neuro. and eye doc to see what they might have up there sleve for me next !!
Yes I'm alittle worried,The Neuro seems to be tool happy,but maybe its just me.I know that
I can take 4 months of Steriods before they decied to Shunt me,OUCH I hate to think about that
but my options are getting narrow ..So today I wake worried ! I'll let you know what happens!

    THANKS for listening I needed to spill alittle this morning !!1 Fingers Crossed ...

Hi mommies4 - how are you doing now? What did the eye doc say?

yep, wouldn't it be great to sit around the kitchen table for a good old chinwag and cuppa! (I think we'd soon sort the medical system out between us!)
