Hey guys. Hope you are still around on here. I have hydro and just had a a VP shunt put in. My shunt is a Codman Hakim programmable shunt. I was wondering what type of shunts you guys have? Also what pressure are they set at?

2 weeks after having surgery I went back to neurosurgeon to have my first check up. My symptoms were exactly the same as before the surgery. He adjusted my valve down another notch and I began having horrible headaches.

I saw him a couple days later and he raised it back up and I haven't had any headaches since. I'm still not 100% but I think I'm slowly getting better with each adjustment. I have read that I'm your pressure is too low that you will get low pressure headaches. So I'm just curious about what pressure you guys are set to?
