hello.
I was diagnosed with hydrocephalus at the begining of 2012 caused by a benign pineal tumour. i have had two operations, the first was a third ventriculostomy. unfortunatley this operation was did not give a permanent solution to drain fluid from my ventricles so i had a second operation for a VP shunt. i have experienced a range of symptoms since this operation which impact on my quality of life. this is one in particular: i have just been noticing latlely that moderate/intense exericse triggers what i call a 'pressure headache' where my head feels really heavy and i can pinpoint the feeling to my forehead, especially inbetween my eyebrows. i also experience dizzyness with these headaches which usually lasts quite a while (several hours). Another thing: it almost feels like im on a boat and i feel unbalanced. I was wondering if anyone else has exxperienced this or knows a possible reason behind it? its really frustrating because i have gained so much weight since finding out about my condition and havent been able to exercise regularly because of the dizzyness and headaches that are gnerated by it . |
