I've had 2 head CT's, the first showed overdrainage the second, did not. On the same day as the first head CT, I was in the ER, and my NS saw me and changed my VP shunt valve setting from 12 to 15. Less than a week later, the beginning of last week, I called for head CT # 2 on Monday, and was seen on Tuesday, where he "manipulated the settings" from 15 to 11 to 14 to 15. My forehead still hurts inches away from my shunt on the left side of my head, on my temple side of my head, also inches from my left eye. Anyone else get these headache problems for two weeks? My last surgery was 3 and a half months ago. Again, the troible has been happening for two weeks. Anyone know anything? Last time my NS did a shunt tap I had meningitis!
