Does anyone else have pseudotumor cerebri?

I was diagnosed with this 2 months ago. The doctor put me on diamox 250 mg twice a day. I noticed a difference. This (along with the spinal tap) helped my head aches and vision. Today I woke up and my vision was bad again. I was told that losing 10% of my body weight would help. I have only lost a little more than half (16 lbs). I don't understand why my vision is getting worse when I am losing weight and taking my meds. I have been walking more, eating better..and its like its a lost cause.

You need to call your doctor asap and let them know about your vision problems.  That's nothing to mess with. Hope there is a quick resolve, Christina
