Hi Shonda,
I’m sure you’ll improve once on Diamox. It helped with the eye pain, the pressure behind the eyes, the vertex (top of head pain) the throbbing image (or lacy overlay) and the tinnitus. I hate taking tablets but this is one I’m glad to take (though I do have to break them into pieces!). My philadelphia collar had already gotten rid of the occipital pain, the neck pain and shoulder pain, so if you have that, I can empathise with you, it wears you down.

I had some good news yesterday from the Neuro-opthalmologist, there’s no longer any disk swelling – yippee, I’ve been on Diamox for a year now, so it’s definitely working.

My MRI above was taken in 2010, it would be interesting to see what it looks like now. Glad you found it useful, I think it always helps if you have an image to compare your own to.
Regards
Barbara
