I hope everything is going ok with you and the chemo,
is it related to the PTC in any way? While I was in
the hospital awaiting to get my vp shunt, my neuro
opth had me on 1000mg of solumedrol and 5000mg of
diamox. Now I have fuzzy vision, unable to drive and
on disability. I ended up having the shunt removed 8
months after it was put in and so it's been almost 5
months without it and no fluid build up or headaches.
I am truely blessed. I will keep u in my prayers.
