Smirk Psuedotumor cerebri

I'm 36yrs old I'll be 37 in a couple weeks this is 1 of the hardest battles I've had to deal with my entire life!? Idk if there's any cure for this my nuerosirgon keeps saying weight loss but I'm reading other peoples weights and these weigh a lot less than me so now I'm like wow? Anyways so so far I've had about maybe 10 surgeries for a lumbar perenteniol shunt idk i know I'm
Misspelling the second word but close enough. I've been diagnoses with this condition 2/3 years ago since 2011/2012. When I 1at got diagnosed they put the shunt in. But it kept manulfunctioning so each time it manuelfunctioned they went back and had to do surgery to put a new 1 in. But as soon as it's settled it lasted for 2 years. Til now and again I went thru another 6/7 surgeries since dec 2013. And as of May 21st I just put another shunt in and so far so good so I'm just hoping this shunt work cuz they cut me the same place so much it seems like it's having a hard time. Healing back? Anyways this is a very hard thing to live with and right now I trying to go for the gastric bypass to get the weight off. And just FYI I'm 5'4" and I weigh 335lbs I noticed wen I was like 350+ lbs that's wen I earned this disorder. So idk if this helps u but it helped me to know there's other people that suffer some of what I'm going thru?
