Suggest Natural Treatments For Pseudotumor Cerebri
I have been diagnosed with pseudotumor cerebri-my pressure was at 33 ...I also was treated for same about 4-years ago pressure then at 38.. I am not obese. Topamax has been subscribe this time around also- which I dislike because of the outer body experienes- It did help take down my spinal pressure along with a huge drop in my IQ- I could not remember how to spell simple words like w-a-s was a problem- - along with the short term memory lost and people thinking I had lost it ` up stairs ... I was not myself...Then came the facial tics/eye twiching, that got pretty extreme...and always feeling like I had a bladder infection- they would run an urine analysis and come back negative? I know topamax gave me the new symptoms- but also resolved my head issues at the same time! The thing is I had more symptoms on topamax- but different from the diagnoses subsided...Is there a natural way to treat Intercranial Hypertension/Pseudotumor cerebri? The medicine is harsh on my body and brain.
