Question New and have questions

Hi,
My name is meg and im 22 yrs old. I was diagnosed with PTC 4 months ago and it was a shock! I have really bad migranes and losing my vision especially in my right eye. Ive had 2 lumbar puncutures and it hasnt helped bc the fluid and swelling keeps coming back. So I come off all the medicines that supposedly cause this problem, but its gettin worse. So now the dr is telling me its the weight that is the problem. That if i dont lose weight, ill go blind! I think it cant b jus the weight, bc i kno alot of ppl who r over weight and dont have this problem. So i go back to the eye dr n a month and trying to lose 5lbs b4 then, and if the swelling and fluid hasnt gone down im goin to see an eye specialist. Im getting really frustrated and worried bout my vision. has anyone been told its their weight and lost weight and the PTC got better? Or do i need to go talk to eye specialist bout surgery?
Plz help me!!!
