Barb and Jessica, That was one of my first thoughts, too! I’m learning that invasive procedures (biopsies, LP’s, surgeries, endovascular procedures, etc) tend to cause rebound inflammation and all of its fall-out in many of us and if we can move to non-invasive options, we tend to do better overall. Anyone else notice this? If we can get doctors to consider Diamox as a diagnostic tool, for example, I think that would be great! Some patients are receiving brain shunts without a Diamox trial. Yikes. As you read in the book, this may not be the wisest choice. For many of us, high intracranial pressure returns to normal later. Shunts (and their associated complications) are forever. 🙁 So the take-home lesson for many of us is “less is more” in many cases. 😉
