I had a VP shunt inserted in september for Benign Intracranial Hypertension, my first shunt caused Staph Meningitis and Peritonitis.
Ever since ive had upper left abdo pain and severe headaches, im on co-codamol and topamax and my neurologost won't see me.
Ive now developed B12 anaemia and Iron def. anaemia, i had a gastroscopy but it was normal.
Ive also developed high platelet count, high blood pressure and a fast heart rate.
Could this be related to the shunt???
