Default Shunt failing???
I've had a vp shunt since 2008 with problem after problem but what is really concerning me is the fact that when I tilt forward I can usually fill up a 2 cup measuring (of spinal fluid draining from the left side of my nose) in an hours time....why is it possible to even do this??

You should be seeing a doc asap, that is extremely serious. CSF leaking like that is not specific to shunt patients, but hope you get checked out fully after they deal with the emergency.
