My daughter was first diagnosed with Psuedotumor five years ago. She was treated with medicine for those five years and had many Spinal Taps to relieve the fluids. I started to see her personality change in those five years. Her Dr. finally tried to put a stint in, but it did not work. Last year she finally had a shunt put in. Last week she ended up in the ER. She said it felt like something popped behind her eye, she was seeing spots, and also had a horrible headache. After 11 hours in the ER they finally gave her a Spinal Tap and took fluid. We are still not sure what happened. One thing I have noticed about her is that her personality has changed DRASTICALLY!!!. It started about the time she was diagnosed. Has anyone experience this?
I thought that when a shunt was put in that was suppose to take care of the fluid.
