What do I have then?
Quoting: snook 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 Judging by your diet and lack of previous medical care and chronic head hitting, you sound like a dumb Mormon or Amish. No offence Op, but you sound like a dumb fuck who by getting nailed in the head repeatedly Darwinism in action. Hmmmmmm, my brain hurts and I wonder why? I suppose getting nailed in the head twice is completely unrelated. You dumb fuck. Well it happened once at work on may 5 and again July 4, both were accidents, shit happens. Hindsight is 20/20. I did not feel any symptoms of trauma so I forgot about it. I am not morman or Amish. What's wrong with a having a healthy diet? Like most Glpers I don't trust the medical system and the last time went to the doctor I had a finger up the ass in front a hot intern when I was 15. Not a fun experience so I only in case of medical emergencies like this one. My primary care doctor does believe this may have been caused by head trauma, but he needs to consult with neurosurgeon and the neurologist. Hopefully the fluid drains on its own so I won't need a shunt put in. Thanks for your input though
