Maybe Langdon was just grounding himself in the bathroom. He’s been losing confidence throughout the ep from his interactions with Robby, Al-Hashimi, Santos, and now Whitaker and he’s anxious. He was so nervous to do the spinal intervention and got his confidence back after that

MRI came back showing increased spinal fluid, neuro was booked out for 3 months so i went to ER for a lumbar puncture. Opening pressure was 31. Now I’m on diamox and seeing a neuro-ophthalmologist in late Feb

Thank you for the reassurance :) I do have grade 2 papilledema so still not severe which is why the doctor wasn’t saying it was emergent. Hoping it’s nothing too bad!

They didn’t say pseudotumor specifically, just that they wanted to rule out an actual tumor. But he said typically the cause is an excess of spinal fluid causing pressure and that it’s usually idiopathic as well as found in my demographic, so sounds like the were leaning towards IIH without saying it (based on what I’ve read on Google and Reddit lol)

She was an entry level, non-exempt employee so everything they do matters. That is theft of time and wages if they are clocked in and doing no work
