Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) and dealing with work

Posted by Paul_2001 @stephenluptak, Jan 27, 2019

Many of you have responsible positions in high powered jobs. How do you cope with the stress, forgetting the details, tight deadlines, etc? What advice would you give on being success in your work?

Hi, @lady1lake - you mentioned going back to Mayo Clinic for another consultation following the MRI and diagnosis of hydrocephalus previously. How did things go?

I met with my oncologist last week to discuss not having whole brain radiation (my decision) since there are no Mets there. He now wants me to have a brain MRI every 3 months for a year to keep check. He set me up with an appt. tomorrow with a neurologist for a consultation concerning the hydrocephalus. Will let you know what’s next on this journey.

What are the diagnosis and treatment codes for NPH?

Hi @stephenluptak,

I moved your message about diagnosis and treatment codes for NPH to this discussion so that you could reconnect with the members. Here’s an interesting study about, "Diagnosis and Treatment of Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5390935/
And, some additional information about Mayo Clinic's Memory Disorders Laboratory
– Amyloid Beta Imaging in Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus https://www.mayo.edu/research/labs/memory-disorders/projects/amyloid-beta-imaging-normal-pressure-hydrocephalus
