Hi Pat,

 

I'm sorry that your daughter has had a difficult time recently. Dr. Krusz and Teri just recently answered a similar question regarding this issue,

Relationship between enlarged brain ventricles and Migraines?

 

The course of treatment would depend on what the diagnosis is, and that can only be safely given by your daughter's doctor. After taking into consideration her tests, symptoms and history and exam, the doctor can then work with you to help her feel better.

 

Good luck

Nancy
