So I was officially diagnosed with psuedotumor cerebri a few months ago, but have been experiencing its wrath for almost a year now. I have had all the traditional symptoms severe headache, loss of vision, neck pain, and pretty much everything else. so this morning when i woke up i felt something i have never felt before. My right leg was radiating throbbing pain. I tried a warm bath and muscle relaxer thinking it might just be a pinched nerve, but nothing worked. I am wondering if this is a symptom of pc or if it could be totally unrelated. I haven't fallen or had any injuries recently. The pain seems to be getting worse and i am starting to have a hard time walking. I called my drs office after hours answering service and the on call dr didn't think it was a big deal, but then again he didn't really know what pc was. So should i listen to him and just wait to see my dr on Thursday or should i go to the er or urgent care???? please I really need some help fast!Oh and btw I am still waiting to find out my surgery date to have my shunt placed. It is the only treatment for me because I have had severe allergic reactions to all of the medications used for psuedotumor cerebri.
