Hey Jasn,
Sorry, But I haven't heard of a twin valved shunt. Please let us know what your neuro has to say as I have a massive difficulty with positioning ie laying down and standing. I get dizzies to the point of collapsing and laying down I have a massive pounding headache. So much so that I hate going to bed due to pain.
As I say, let us know please
