I was born in 1971 with a severe hydrocephalus diagnosis, although I didn't require a shunt. Stayed in isolation for 6 months in PICU, due to other issues related to this.. Ever since, I've been having adult sized migraine headaches since the age of 2. (I'm 52 now) For those of you who share this diagnosis with me, what has helped you through the years as far as pain management etc??

One person mentioned that they have been using Imitrex for their migraine issue and it's the best thing they've found in 20 years. Another person with hydrocephalus shared that they had many shunt revisions and still suffer from headaches. Some people also mentioned experiencing headaches due to visual problems or increased intracranial pressure.
