This syndrome is seen most often in obese adolescent girls and young women. But less commonly, it does occur in men. On physical examination, the person seems quite well. The goal of treatment is to relieve the increased pressure in the head. Treatment options include repeated lumbar punctures to remove the CSF until normal pressure is maintained.
Drug therapy is controversial.
In persons who do not respond to any of the above treatments - placement of a lumbar shunt may be needed. You are not alone in this diagnosis. People do suffer with this disease because of the health problems associated with the obesity and the headaches. His neurosurgeon could not remove the rest as it was near his motor cortex. What concerns me is his spatial orientation.
