This type of headache requires quick medical attention because it is an emergency. Your chances of recovering are higher the sooner you seek care.
You may experience pressure inside your skull as a result of a head injury or another medical condition. The risky condition known as elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) can result in a headache. Additionally, pressure might worsen existing brain or spinal cord injuries.

So I found out today that the black spot in my vision is officially permanent and that if my medicine doesn't start working again at a higher dose, then I will need a stent/shunt placed in my head. Brain surgery scares me so much, but it's impossible to function every day if I don't somehow get my head pressure managed 😞 send me positive vibes and well wishes pls, it sounds like I might need it 🖤

i enjoy going through the IIH tags when im feeling down in regards to my health- so i wanted to ask something to other people with this condition. even when medicated, are the pressure headaches a constant? even after medical intervention?
mine are always there, except for the initial few minutes to an hour post spinal tap. and im really upset about it right now. makes me feel like im faking or im never going to get better, or that one day ill need a shunt (very possible) and brain surgery scares me so much. im tired of having the constant pounding headache whenever i dare to lay down, or even just do anything at this point.
i just would like to hear from other people, maybe get some advice on some like. home remedies for lack of a better word that i can do alongside my medication and the occasional medical intervention.
p.s: i did get a neat trick from one of the nurses during my last hospital stay. put an ice pack/cold pack on the back of your head, and a heat pack on the front. for me it helps greatly, even if it isnt a perma fix, so i thought id share it to maybe help others.

My face hurts. Like I got punched or something.
Across my forehead. Both eye sockets. Both cheekbones. Down into my upper jaw. My teeth. My lower jaw and teeth. Everything feels swollen and chewing hurts. Flossing and brushing my teeth for nighttime wind down hurt.
Super pumped to have to work the next two days.
Also the constant ringing in my ears is *chef’s kiss*

Can’t believe I lasted four years on this shunt. That’s my personal record. I have an MRI soon and several other tests before I find out the next steps but atleast now I have concrete proof that it’s broken, and an answer to my pain. My codman certas valve is supposed to remain at either a 1 or 2 setting. It was somehow on a 7-8 when it was checked today.

Good news: my headache is gone and I ate something.
Bad news: I'm miserable from the medicine that makes the headaches go away and I'm stuck in the stairwell because I am too weak to walk back up the steps to my room.

still can't get over me being like "my left nasal sinus and my left ear are fucked and feel like shit" and dr examinations/CT scan being like "they look fine. There's fluid in your brain on the left side though." Like shehwnkwjwjw??? I thought I had a deviated septum or some shit

ADHD is when instead of preparing for the upcoming surgery exam, you watch the mechanism of action of Adderall on YT
#what if it's just too high intracranial pressure#you need to be a literal Heracles to understand why you feel bad... when you're feeling bad.
