Hi - I am a grandmother of a beautiful grandson who has hydrocephalus. The NS has referred him to a neurologist for assessment. Raffi is suffering from headaches and has had an MRI recently and the NS said everything was okay. My daughter still thinks the headaches are shunt related. He has had five operations since July 7/07. He is seven years old. He was not born with Hydro - he contacted it in the hospital. He was a 26 weeker and weighed in at 1 kilo (2.2 lbs). We are Canadians, although Raffi is Canadian and Mexican.

What will a neurologist do to find out about his headaches?

Thanks very much for any info.
