Default Help?

Hi everyone, I just found this board today and hope that someone can help me out. I have a 15 year old son who's had a shunt for 15 years, he's had it replaced once, 5 years ago.

For the last 2 weeks Josh has had a headache. He's had the x-rays and a CAT scan and they haven't shown anything but he still has the headache. Josh doesn't normally get headaches. Spina Bifida clinic was closed last week and will re-open tomorrow so if it continues I'm going to call first thing in the morning to see if I can bring him in. Has anyone ever heard of these tests coming back okay and it still being a shunt problem? This morning his head didn't hurt so we'll see if it's better or just woke up feeling better.

Any help you can give me would be great, I'm stumped on this one.
