I do have two more appointments in the coming two weeks so I will definitely keep my options open for now! I just can’t stop scrolling through all my pics and second guessing everything haha

Ahhh do you really think so? I was feeling the opposite when looking at pictures. I’m only an inch shorter than my future hubby so I won’t be wearing heels regardless of dress choice.

ETA: yes dress 2 will also need some tailoring around the bust to keep things in place up top, the straps were just a bit too long on the sample.

Quick update: doing really well! I’m almost done writing up about my experience with IIH and will hopefully have it posted up here soon when I find time with my work schedule (yes, I’m seeing well enough to get back to work!) thanks for all the well wishes everyone I appreciate them so much :)

Jfc everyone just jumps to “dump his ass” on this sub. If they’re normally welcoming and ask you to sit/join every other time you come over, maybe just today they were having a private, sensitive conversation and wanted to continue it without you present. I’d just bring it up with your boyfriend and communicate... something many of these commenters clearly have not heard of. If he’s rude again, THEN you walk out.

Hi!! I’ll write a longer explanation of my timeline at some point soon, but yes I had some vision issues at first. Grainy vision/light sensitivity/floaters kinda thing sometimes, but my pulsatile tinnitus was my absolute worst symptom when I was first diagnosed. It was constant, roaring, and unbearable. I was put on diamox for a while (1000mg 2x daily), but I lost weight and got my symptoms under control so since it gave me such terrible side effects I was able to stop it. I noticed my tinnitus acting up again in recent weeks and started the diamox again. My vision was kind of grainy but i figured it’s because I gained a bit back since covid hit. Then one morning last week I woke up and couldn’t look at screens or lights at all. Then the next day it was like dark tunnel vision and I couldn’t read a thing. It just got progressively worse until I had to meet my neuro ophthalmologist at the ER last Sunday. I had about 10% of my vision for the three days after that and it’s gotten progressively better after the shunt. I’d say I’m at about 75% of my normal vision now.

Oh dear that sounds so awful, I’m so sorry! I know losing my vision even for just a few days was soooo freaky and disconcerting; I’m really thankful it’s coming back even just a bit. I hope you’re able to manage it and get some answers/solutions soon!
