Looking for alternative treatment options for VP Shunt

Hi, I'm still fairly new to this condition. I was diagnosed last year and I lost my health insurance right after being diagnosed. I have done some research. but it seems like the end game will be having a VP Shunt put in. I was just wondering is there any other treatment plans, other than meds and surgery, I can look into?

What medications have they tried with you? Maybe diamox will work? I also find the right sleep/diet/weight loss helps
