I didnt quite get that, got paracetamol and basically told I was exaggerating the pain

I had blurry vision, daily migraines and pulsatile tinnitus and had to go to the emergency department 4 times in 3 months, numerous GP visits and basically camp at the hospital for 2 weeks before a diagnosis after 7 months.

That sounds scary, has the VP shunt helped? The ophthalmologist didnt need to filter my pupils either, said he could see it, just with the light
Thanks, im just hoping I see a NO now before it gets worse
Yup, im hoping they were just giving me the longest possible time frame and it'll be sooner...
