New vp shunt placed for first time at 36 yrs of age
Im new to this forum and thank the the Lord I found it. I just recently had a vp shunt placed and im 8 weeks post op, but the med they put me on for the headaches has worse side effects than I can deal with. Go back to neurologist this week for change in med and surgeon for shunt adjustment. The surgeon says he has to lower the pressure in my head and it will make my headaches worse. Does that mean he is pulling more fluid off at a faster rate? And my short term memory seems to have gotten a lot worse since surgery. Anyone else experiencing the same thing?
