I need some advice. I've been having headaches, nausea, dizziness, just a general drunk feeling for the past couple of weeks. I wouldn't say it's getting worse, just not getting any better. I had to sleep last night with wet towel on my neck b/c of pain. This is very out of the ordinary. Just a brief background, I had a shunt in '84 when I was 2 months and had it revised a couple of times since. I also had a 2nd shunt inserted shortly after that first one but it stopped working along the way and I've been able to function with just one. My last revision was in '97. My dr did a CT scan last week and the ventricles were 3x enlarged from scan done in January. However, they did a test today to check the flow through the shunt and it showed to be working. I'm just very frustrated and looking for some relief. My dr is out of town this week and will return next week. In the meantime, they will not release me back to work until I see him. Anyone had any similar experiences???

Thanks,
