Good morning, my name is LaKeyshia and I was diagnosed with CVST on last week and I also have IHH. I have experiencing whooping in my ears, face pain, severe headaches, nausea, vomiting, vision problems and over all ill. After we received my MRI & MRV results (revealed complete thrombosis of the left transverse sinus) the neurologist placed me on plavix and Hydrochlorothazide. I am having really bad headaches nausea dizziness vomiting and just over all ill. I have never had high blood pressure before but My blood pressure has been extremely high for the past couple of week even with taking this new blood pressure medicine Hydrochlorothazide I notice most women on this post were hospitalized and treated with heparin. I’m curious if this course of treatment I am on plavix is aggressive enough. Is anyone being treated with Plavix? I am terrified and extremely stressed out about this diagnosis. Does the clot dissolve or go away or is this a permanent condition. Has anyone had the clot complete go away? I also sent in my records to the Mayo Clinic in to get a second opinion. Any suggestions or information would be greatly appreciated.

I was on heparin for 2 weeks, than Rivaroxaban for 2 months that I switched to Apixaban hoping that dizziness will disappeared. After almost 3 months I still have disequilibrium when moving. How is your diziness - better , worse ? Thanks
