I try to do some walking & light jogging, but it's very limited right now.

As for the the intermittent hydrocephalus, no word yet.  I'm still waiting on a follow up appointment with my NS to see what the path forward will be.  I'll post more when I find out something!

I looked back to your earlier post about talking to a neurosurgeon named Dr. Goldware, has he been able to help you in terms of the intermittent hydrocephalus!

Are you running presently?

I ran for about 2 years prior to my diagnosis. I ran to be with my best friend and go to meet her in NY for two half marathons. My head throbbed both times and I can remember feeling some kind of movement inside. I just thought it was because I was new to running.

Definitely check this out with your doctor - it sounds like a scary thing.
