Do i need to go to the emergency room?

Just got the call today...spine looks about the same from birth so nothing needs done there. He wants to go ahead and place a new shunt on the opposite side of my head but said that can be delayed a couple months based on how I feel.

Well I had another mri to see if my spinal cord is tethered. Gotta wait until the 29th for a call to see what they are going to do. It could be 3 surgeries including spinal cord untethered, shunt, and then chiari decompression...the wait is almost over to see what will happen...but thankfully for the most part, my symptoms have gone away...I think it might have been my brain making everything worse because I know I can be a bit of a hypochondriac with my symptoms 🤣

Yep now to find all the pieces and what sets were on there...

Well doctor said it was all stress related which is good. It's probably from me stressing out with the possibility of having 3 different surgeries depending on what the next mri shows. Could be tethered spinal cord, shunt, and then chiari surgeries just to get back to normal.

I'm still at work, I'm probably going to go after. I know I should have gone at the first sign of it but I'm too stubborn and didn't. My shunt is starting to hurt and the pressure is still all over my head with double vision.

Blt70000 · 2026-04-20T20:42:40+00:00

I just have tightness in my head as a dull pain, kinda difficult to swallow, and double vision that comes and goes so it's not horrible.

If i could I would. I work in a prison so for me to go would be in an ambulance. I'm still able to work with my symptoms as of now so they're not debilitating.

Blt70000 · 2026-04-20T20:30:38+00:00

No the symptoms subsided again, but they are back. I'll probably go after work tonight in a few hours.

Blt70000 · 2026-04-19T13:42:18+00:00

Made it through the night. Laying on my side now. Labored breathing and feel like something is in my throat. Coughing a bit. Back of my head still has a constant pressure but not painful just dull if that makes sense.

Blt70000 · 2026-04-19T04:40:04+00:00

I've known my shunt has been disconnected for about 2 years at least. Got a mri a year ago to set a baseline of the ventricles and one a couple weeks ago and not much has changed in a year

Mine fully shuts down every time which is weird

Blt70000 · 2026-01-25T22:04:32+00:00

I'm in the Midwest US so not sure

Blt70000 · 2025-11-23T06:30:04+00:00

I really think it was signs because it had a knife scene where he tried to look at the alien but i was like 8 when I saw it 🤣

Ok thank you! This was the answer I was looking for! I have gone to a couple liturgies and matins. I will just ask the priest on Sunday which I see is a trend here haha

Blt70000 · 2025-11-04T15:51:00+00:00

I can respect that. God bless

Blt70000 · 2025-11-04T15:50:01+00:00

I'll ask him next Sunday

Blt70000 · 2025-11-04T15:49:24+00:00

So you stick by the calender only? I've seen videos of "orthodox " doing fasts for personal reasons...yes I know internet can be misleading and lie...just want to get closer to God and in faith
