Evening all
I have been stuck in Hospital for days I have Ideopathic intercranial hypertension (IIH) A condition which mimics a bran tumour.
I have had this for years suffering with headaches dizzyness and needing regular lumber punctures to relieve the CFS pressure
But now it has affected my vision the build up of CFS is now affecting my optic nerve so the risk is losing my sight
I was admitted on thus and have had many tests many scans to find I have reached the end and they have to operate and place a VP shunt
I knew this was coming and I thought they would book the surgery for a few weeks but no the Neuro surgeon has just come now and I have signed a consent for emergency surgery tomorrow!!!!!!!!!
I am so scared and know I won't sleep now
It's to late to ring family so I wondered if anyone was awake for a hand hold??
