Default vp shunt problems

Hi! I'm new to this site and need some help understanding my husbands symptoms. My husband,Dean,had a vp shunt inserted in October 2012,since then he has had headaches, short term memory loss, tingling at top of head, increased anxiety and agitation, feels like he is in a fog most of the time. went to ER for confusion in feb. and they admitted him and adjusted his shunt x 2. His symptoms have not resolved and the neurosurgeon now thinks he is having seizures that is causing his symptoms. yikes! We don't see the neurologist until april 15th. Anyone else having these issues with their shunt? I don't know where else to turn.
