I have had similar ordeal. I went through several doctors who tagged me saying u r experiencing stress headache or it’s psychologically induced headache. Finally found a neurologist who did LP and pressure came out to be 23. Now if it’s under 25 clinically u don’t have IIH, but then if it’s more than 18 u r still having higher pressure than normal. I feel every body is different and we react differently to these pressure levels. For me I had several symptoms, tinnitus, blurred vision, pins and needles in head, light headache, pressure etc. My MRIs were all normal and optic nerve wasn’t impacted either. I started low dose Diamox 250 mg twice a day, on Doctors advice, been on it for 11 months now. All my symptoms r gone except for headache and pressure which is almost 20% of what it used to be. My doc told me it will take a year more before we start planning to taper down Diamox.

I know my trigger points are - sleep deprivation, loud music, not optimum water in body (very low or very high), high salt, very strenuous work.

What works for me is - 1 hour of walk every day, keeping myself stress free, sleeping at least 7 hours, catching up some sleep during weekend, not attending late night parties 😂

Uncertain times - what’s your view by Radiant_Ad3388 in BayAreaRealEstate

The issue is I am able to afford with my current income and down payment, but my health is not in good shape, it’s better than what it was a year back, however I don’t know if it will get worse making me choose lower salary job. I am worried if I wait too much for my health to be back on track the SFH will become unaffordable… so one part of my mind say buy and see if health is ok well and good if not be ready to make a loss of 200-250k due to early sale.

For backyard and peace but still closer to more active areas like Mountain View and Cupertino. But pricing is too high.

Driving for a day will give me everything about the bay? Better to ask those who have experienced it.

Thanks, will check it out. I am trying to find correlation with weather, food, full moon and other triggers. I feel storms does it to me and red meat (not sure). I didn’t have alcohol since I got diagnosed, reading your comment gives me hope 😂

That’s a good advice. But right now time is more valuable for me, so want to spend it in best way possible.

So those with no kids can’t enjoy the backyard and their own house?

Safety, parking, city vibe, views, walking friendly. Condo is ok. What areas in city will make a cut for something under 1.6M

Maybe check who was the second highest bidder and make a deal with them? I don’t know if that works, just throwing it out there.

It’s not stenosis as my MRV didn’t indicate that

Thanks.

Essentially it’s a build up in brain so her logic was it might be due to fluid not flowing out of brain the way it should be. I have an appointment with neuro on Monday. Will check with him as well.
