Does anyone here have Pesudotumor Cerebri or Intracranial Hypertension that has shunts but still has migraines? My migraines are in the back of my head and not on one side or the other, just all across the back, so which side would be best for a piercing? I’m not looking at getting both done.
I have a shunt as well and I had looked into the faith peircing. So ending result is I got the peircing and it's been working wonders the only thing I deal with is my chonic headaches but I'm going to be having a neurosurgeon look into it.
I would suggest getting both sides done! I have a Pseudo Tumor. I went to get my daiths done with a migraine and walked out with no migraine.
I have IIH/PTC, got my vpshunt 7 years ago, pierced both my daith almost 2 years ago and found it really helped, I also do the botox shots every 3 months. Have not had to go to ER for pain in over a year now.
I Have a shunt also, and have been wondering the same thing. I belong to a local support group for EDS patients and online for our local 800 member group but I'm only 1 of 3 people who have a shunt AND no one has a faith piercing so nobody has been able to answer my question. Good luck ladies and hope you get answer. Meanwhile I'm still looking too.
I have hypertension but I'm on meds for it.I get Aurora migraine and pain at bk of my head.what's that about piercing, is there a piercing that can help.Thanks
