pseudotumor cerebri
"I was diagnosed with Pseudotumor Cerebri 2 weeks ago after experiencing blurry vision and dizziness for sometime.  I got an eye exam done and they saw I had a swollen optic nerve. The neurologist prescribed Diamox., told me to lose weight and stop birth control.  I noticed within about 2 days of taking the medication the blurred vision is completely gone.  Dr. told me to ease into the meds. starting 1/2 a 250 mg pill 2x/day for week, then 1 250mg pill 2x/day for week then if symptoms persist take 3 250mg pill 3x/day.  This helped getting me used to the side effects so far I have the tingling in fingers and sometimes mouth.  I pee alot but am trying to lose weight so drinking lots of water and eating healthy and no pop is likely helping to."
