Mayo does have specialists in intracranial hyper and hypotension in both Rochester and Jacksonville. I go to Jacksonville to see a Neurologist who specializes in this area. In Jacksonville she is identified as a headache specialist. It took me a while to find her. In my case the pressures are inconsistent and the lumbar puncture was not clearly indicative, but my symptoms were. Through trial and some error my headaches have lessened considerably. I hope this helps. Don’t give up! Your quality of life is worth the effort.

Thank you. I have a headache specialist here and when I’m healthy enough get injections from that doctor to lessen the pain. I am glad to hear it is pain relief. What I was intending in was finding out the status of my stent. It doesn’t seem even worth it to go then, I wanted to see if I needed my surgery corrected or if there was a way to stop the vomiting. I just wanted my life back. Pain they treat here. I had surgery for prevention of total blindness.
