oh it very much is related to it 🙂 i have very high intercranial pressure. psuedotumor ceribri and minimil 3 to 4mm chiari. i have had i for almost 8 years. shunt placed in dec of 04 removed in Jan of 05 (meningitas twice. Was all thru the tubes of the shunt) my spinal tap pressures range between 40 to 50 usually. sometimes a bit lower. But i have also topped out.
I should also rephrase the question. does anyone come into the dr’s office with really high pressures. Then they go down by a couple numbers the longer they sit in the office?
