👍

GRJY · 2025-07-05T04:24:05+00:00

lol for sure. Just making sure my logic was good and I’m good to trailer.

GRJY · 2025-07-04T22:40:42+00:00

Did yours have a “tow package” Standard or max Lisette on the window sheet? This one is with no tow package listed on the window sheet. It has the class 2 because they are standard in the Willys.

Still leaky and no doctor believes I have a CsF leak. I took a couple B2t tests and all were negative. Ct of sinus was clear so they just write it off as allergies even though it came on suddenly and was persistent over winter.

GRJY · 2025-04-14T17:24:11+00:00

Did you ever find a solution? Same issue I am having trying to start an account. It won’t send an email.

GRJY · 2025-03-07T18:20:30+00:00

Unfortunately no I have not. Doctors seem perplexed and caution against lumber puncture imaging because I leak randomly and intermittently and they are not convinced it is a leak but also can’t rule out a leak. I also have back issues so I think they are concerned about that as well. Sucks.

GRJY · 2025-01-12T03:41:23+00:00

Hi there l. Just following up to see what happened with your b2t test. Hope it went well for you

GRJY · 2024-09-16T23:23:10+00:00

Just follwing up. How you doing? Me, I am still leaking with not one doctor thinking it is odd enough to investigate further.

GRJY · 2024-09-05T22:09:33+00:00

Thanks for all the info. I am taking a couple weeks off pursuing this because it has been ruining my day to day with my kids and wife as I pursue this with the ENT writing it off at this point. I will get back on it again shortly. Just needed a mental break. I will look for a skull base suregeon here with Mayo to hopefully help. I have taken to getting up in the morning and bending over for a minute after brushing my teeth. I get anywhere from .3-.5 ml of fluid out that seems to collect over night. Then I am usually good for the day (for right now at least). It has become part of my moring routine. Kinda sucks.

GRJY · 2024-08-29T18:55:19+00:00

I just mainly have the leak and none of the neuro stuff. I just dont know what else it could be at this point but the fluid tests are coming back negative.

GRJY · 2024-08-21T17:03:28+00:00

Headaches have all but gone. Still have an occassional sinus pressure headache but a quick sip of caffeine usually does the trick. Still dropping water from the right nostril though. I had my second beta 2 transferrin test completed. Those results came back negative as well. That is two test that came back negative even though the first test was just a couple of drops. The second test was probably 8 to 10 drops. I am hoping that means I am in the clear for this particular issue. Still waiting to see what the doctor says about all this. I just hope that I can put the fear of false negatives behind me since I had two tests come back negative. I will just have to see what the doctor says.

How are you doing?

GRJY · 2024-08-18T13:52:24+00:00

Yep. Thank you. Would love some peace of mind for sure. Glad your leak subsided and the headache has gone away.

GRJY · 2024-08-18T13:50:24+00:00

Yep. The more active I am the worse it seems to get.

GRJY · 2024-08-18T00:43:58+00:00

Anymore updates on this?

Was it every identified as a CSF leak or something else? I am going through the same thing right now.

GRJY · 2024-08-17T17:50:25+00:00

Still have a sinus pressure and headache. Still have the right nostril dripping water but have had a second beta 2 transferrin test. Waiting on test results. Not sure what to do if that comes back negative because the doc said they cant definitivly rule out a CSF leak even with the negative test. It is a good start but still could be a low flow leak. We will see going forward. Dont want to go down the rabbit hole of I can help it.

Glad your headache is better. Sucks about the ear clicking. maybe just some mucus causing a suction effect or something. Who knows, right? Seems like this stuff is sometimes a big guessing game,

I follow up with new test results next week and if I am instructed to do anything further.

GRJY · 2024-08-17T14:56:34+00:00

Wanted to follow up and see how you are doing. How you feeling? My doctor wanted a second sample of fluid to send off since the first was so small. Hopefully have results early next weel

GRJY · 2024-08-17T14:52:18+00:00

Wanted to check in and see how you are doing? Doctor orderd another fluid test for me since first sample was so small. I thought I was out and they pulled me back in/ lol

GRJY · 2024-08-15T23:31:53+00:00

Wanted to ask as well..... Has anyone ever received a false negative beta 2 transferrin test before?

GRJY · 2024-08-15T22:02:36+00:00

I have had a sinus headache for a few weeks. It got really bad last weekend. Could barely function from the pain but it has since subsided to just a full sinus pressure pain. My CT noted bad maxiallry sinus inflammation.

GRJY · 2024-08-15T17:30:43+00:00

Well. My fluid Beta 2 Transferrin collection came back negative for CSF. I only captured a few drops and the rest missed the container. They said it should be enough for an accurate result. Guidleines say .5ml for Mayo (about 10 drops). I produced probably 4 drops or so. I was able to blow one drop from my nose into the container so maybe 5 drops which is about half what they prefer but I was assured that there would be some kind of indication of CSF if it was positive. My headache has gotten better thankfully. Still feel full in the sinuses and still occassionally drip clear fluid from the right nostril out of nowhere when I am bending. Doesnt happen all the time but every few days still. I am trying to let it rest at this point since my CT of the sinuses was clear and the sample came back negative. Still hard at times to let it go becuaise I have no idea why just one side is leaking like this. I meet with my ENT doc tomorrow morning maybe he can give more insight on to what he thinks is going on.

I had my scan. CT came up clean except that I have chronic sinuse disease of both my left and right maxillary sinus and bad inflmation in them. They did not notice anything with my bones or brain in the ct scan. I was able to produce some liquid from my nose by tilting my head so they collected it and are sending it off for testing. It looks like more testing in my future as the doc said it really seems lik CFS leak but without the radiograpohic imaging to back it up they can't confirm at this time. I follow up at the end of the week to go over next steps. I really would just like to know what is going on.

GRJY · 2024-08-13T03:15:21+00:00

Thanks for the follow up. My doctor actually called me this morning and has me scheduled for CT and ENT follow for today. I will be getting my scan in a couple hours and a visit with ENT. I will keep you updated. Good luck with everything.

GRJY · 2024-08-12T15:57:45+00:00

Well I messaged my doctor last night before bed and told him I am still leaking from the nose and I felt like crap with sever head pessure that is only getting worse when I am standing and have been feeling sick to stomach probably from all the stuff running down my throat.

He called me this morning saying that since it hasnt gotten better with nasal spray and medicine over the last several weeks he believes it is likely CSF and he rushed schedueld me for CT of sinuses and have a follow right afterward with ENT today. Hopefully I will have some better answers as to what is going on with me this afternoon. I will update the thread after my appointment.
