What are symptoms of pseudotumor cerebri?
Most common symptoms of high CSF pressure inside the head are headache and visual loss. The headache may be located anywhere. Symptoms include: • Dimming, blurring, or graying of vision Difficulty seeing to the side Brief visual disturbances (often associated with bending and stooping) Double vision Rushing noises in the ears Nausea and vomiting The only symptom that my daughter did not experience was the rushing noises in the ears. Since she was experiencing so many others, the doctor ordered the additional test. My daughter is ready to walk into our regular physician and tell him what she thinks of him and saying it only just a headache or migraine. She has been suffering for over a month now. My daughter is scared and knows she has to lose weight. She does not want to lose her eye sight. As a mother I feel helpless right now, but I have to keep her encouraged that this is treatable as the specialist stated.
