I went to the neurologist today and she says that it isnt my weight that is causing this problem. I need to lose bout 20lbs, but even if i had gastric bypass and lose the weight the fluid will not go away. So now im havin my 3rd lumbar puncture and sending me to a neuro eye specialist to talk bout a fentration surgery round my eye. It relieves some of the pressure round the eye. I was wonderin if anyone has had this kind of surgery and if it helped and what the risks and down time is?
