Default New and looking for folks who have VP Shunt experience
Hi my name is Cathy. I am 47 and currently unemployed due to health issues. I have Spina Bifida and a VP Shunt. I also have multiple other medical issues. I am looking for anyone who has experience/knowledge with a VP Shunt. In 2013 I had my 13th revision on my shunt. My last one lasted 40 years. Now I am having horrible migraines and stomach aches. Does anyone here have that? What have you experienced? How are you coping? Any feedback would be great.
