Problem After Shunt Surgery (hydrocephalus) Posted: 08-16-06 10:36am
I had surgery on 6/18/06. I had 3 shunt
adjustments. I don't have the headaches
anymore but I still am a little light
headed and also I have this "noise" in my
head. Or I guess "ringing" in my ears.To
anyone that has had this surgery, did you
or do you still have this problem and if
so did it go away on its own or did you
just need further shunt adjustments.
Thanks for any info.

I read your message, I was wondering if
you had this done because of tinnintus? I
have had that since 1994 and I have been
to doctor after doctor and no one can help
me, I am at my ropes end and I need help
,as I have had this noise in my right ear
and I can apply pressure on my neck and
stop it for a short time.. Please reply

Wow!!!! My daughter has had a shunt since
6mths old.She has had three revisions
also. Just on 8/7/07 was her most
recently.like before she had been having
some bad headaches that they always treat
as miagrains be fore the storm.Only this
time she heard the ringing and had back
ache.They where running test and finding
no malfunction while in the hospital she
started having seiziures which prompt to
emergency surgery.To find out the shunt
did malfuntion and the fluid was building
up. Causing her to have these headaches
and ringing. I hope and pray that she dont
have to go through this again.Hope they
find a test to show shunt malfunction.She
is a bright B honor roll student and looks
100% .u cant tell she has a shunt.I hope
this had been some help to you.U can PM
me.Lets keep in touch.
