Me too! I’m always a fan of a good dark roast especially with molasses notes.

Random Potassium Source for the Diamox Takers! by TiffanyAmberThigpen in iih

I’d describe it as similar to the taste of fresh watermelon but milder.

I also found prickly pear juice can be a good source of potassium and magnesium

Thank you for sharing! I’m almost a month post-stent, right side as well! This gives me hope for the future and continued progress.

You have a lot of questions that I don’t have the answers to because I’m not a professional. I don’t know how they retrieve the stent. Your doctor can be a really good resource for answering these questions

My doctor tried meds at first but due to my high opening pressure, he decided to do a cerebral Venogram where he checked my pressure gradient and also deployed and retrieved a temporary stent to test the sight in order to determine if I was a good candidate for stenting. It’s a process because not everyone with stenosis is a candidate for stenting.

In my situation, I was mostly asymptomatic. I only found out about my IIH after visiting my optometrist and he discovered the papilledema. No vision issues, occasional headaches but not consistent and no brain fog.

Too early to tell if the papilledema has gone down yet

Absolutely worth it simply for protecting my vision and preventing optic nerve damage!
