this thread is so old, but I'm bored so I'll update it again. kinda sick of having stuff to tell LMAO
symptoms returned, but they were different. long story short I produce too much CSF (cerebrospinal fluid) causing high pressure in the brain. so I'm getting a shunt soon. I couldn't tolerate the side effects of CSF-reducing medication. it'll be scheduled Tuesday after my final spinal tap. this is a rare complication of decompression surgery but I didn't exactly follow the recovery instructions so that is probably on me. not sure if I can dive with one, will have to ask DAN.
I'm honestly excited. back to a normal life (for the second time!).
