IIH advice needed!

Hi All sorry about long post!

6 years ago I was diagnosed with IIH, I was discharged after 5 months following lumbar puncture and a very short time on acetazolomide.

Last Saturday I went for a routine optitions app, the swelling is back with a vengeance. I also have quite bad sickness which I had not realised was a symptom of this.

I had an emergency refferal to the eye clinic which I had today. They are refferring me to neurologist and MRI. Because of my diagnosis 6 years ago, the Dr said she wasnt concerned even though my eyes are very swollen and a video was taken due to them pulsating.

My question is, will this be an urgent refferal or will it be classed as routine? I'm getting quite worried now!

Thanks in advance, any advice would be really appreciated!!

Hey Smile

I feel like I could’ve wrote this post!! How are you keeping now? Have you been treated as a high risk or anything? Has anything been said to you about getting a section?

Sorry I’ve got more questions than answers for you x
