Doing some research while waiting on the doctors, sounds like hydrocephalus, don't like what I'm reading. [ link to en.m.wikipedia.org] LOL, no, that's not what you have. What do I have then? It could be anything from a bacteria or virus to electrolytes being out of whack to poor circulation...that's why they run tests... Just talked to my doctor, it is hydrocephalus. Going to wait and see if the excess fluid will drain on its own or if I need a shunt. If I need the shunt my doctor wants the surgery done at the mayo clinic in Jacksonville I'm at cape canaveral hospital right now. I feel fine now, my doctor believes it caused from trauma I whacked my head at work on may 5 then hard again on July 4
