I have been diagnosed with both NPH and white matter disease. Where may I find information of the affects of both? (My neurologist is not even familiar with ETV.)

I am sorry, I have no idea of anything on either.

Hi, @stephenluptak - I've merged your post with this one so you can meet members like @techi and @jeancary who have talked about either white matter disease or normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH). I'd also like you to meet @nancywootten @kajunangel67 and
@jc2buds. Hoping they will have some insights for you on your diagnoses.

I'd also like to mention these resources:
- Mayo Clinic information on hydrocephalus, https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/hydrocephalus/symptoms-causes/syc-20373604

- NIH information on normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH), https://www.ninds.nih.gov/Disorders/All-Disorders/Normal-Pressure-Hydrocephalus-Information-Page

Did your doctor have a theory on the cause of the NPH in your case, @stephenluptak?
