I was told that there was a doctor out in California that could do surgery and possibly repair all the leaks. Before any of this happened I fortunately started feeling much better and for about a year now have been headache free. I still feel pressure every now and then but with extra fluid intake and caffeine intake I can function normally. Anyway, my concern now is that I am pregnant. I haven't been consuming as much caffeine because of that and I'm also very scared that the weight gain will affect my condition. Has anyone ever been pregnant with leaks? I've noticed lately that I can feel the pressure more often. I'm not sure if that is even the right way to describe it but that is what it feels like. Any input would help. Thanks!!
