Hi Alexiak,
Welcome to NeuroTalk.

Check out the
Hydrocephalus Forum

If you go to hydrocephalus forum and look under the page numbers on right hand side towards top of forum there are two tabs. One is Forum Tools and the other is Search this Forum.

If you type in keywords to Search this Forum and check the Show Posts button and click Go, you will bring up older threads with people asking similar questions. I used the keywords "VP Shunt Removal" and that brought up many older threads.

I'm very sorry that you're dealing with so much since the shunt removal last week. I hope you can find some answers in some of the older posts there. That forum is not very busy these days, but if you repost you may find that someone will answer who has experience.

take care there.
