Basically i got idiopathic intracranial hypertension had to have a shunt put in my head and stomach tto drain fluid, i was supposed to have a lumber puncture (sp?) 
but found out from scans that i had kiari malformation too, its been nearly 7 weeks since i had my op havent got check once since i was discharged from hospital, and got my implant taking out yesterday as i believe thats the cause to all my problems. doctor checked my bp and it was 170/90 which is high aspecially seen as im only 20! so ive been booked in for blood tests tomorrow and i also am not aloud any contaceptive, i have factor v leiden too which means blood clots easilyer so i am limted to contraception anyway.. i just feel like its one thing after another and wanted to really get it off my chest, and ask if their is anyone else going through similar thing?
i nearly lost my eyesight too, and cant drive at the moment it starts to get very frustrating
sorry for the long rant
