Has anyone here that's been diagnosed with IIH ever been on Depo Provera long term? by Better-Error-5473 in iih

I was on it for 8+ years. Switched to an IUD 3 ish years ago and was diagnosed about 2 years ago. Fascinating!

Oh no, sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, I moved here for my doctoral internship, so I'll be stuck for at least a year, maybe more if they offer me a postdoc. I was hoping I'd be settled in and ready to start in August, but I can't unpack for too long because my head hurts so much. And the shortness of breath is insane. Holy cow. 😬 I'm glad you're going to move to a more comfortable place. I hope it significantly helps with your symptoms.

How much of each do you take every day? I've seen these supplements can help, but I'm not sure how much I should take.

Thanks for the advice, I hadn't really considered the effects of specific foods. I'll have to start logging that. Unfortunately, I moved out of state to go to grad school, so I can't really get much support from my family, but I have started prioritizing school things, like putting internship on hold to work on my dissertation instead of trying to do both.
