I had a shunt inserted many years ago...1967! It was revised when I was 13 and still have the same one.
I find that in times of both high and low atmospheric pressure I feel pain around the eyes and sinuses, am lethargic and feel pain sometimes around the shunt area. Also when I am in an aeroplane that is descending very quickly, as when I flew to Kenya and Tenerife, I was sick for the first day of the holiday!
Does anyone else suffer from these 'flying' headaches who have shunts?
