Hi all,
Anyone having the same issues with me currently?
I am having chronic daily headaches which are normally at my temples and dizziness as well. Recently I got tinnitus (which sounds like after you heard something loud) and I'm not sure it's because of the Amitriptyline I'm on (5mg/day).
I'm very worried about the possibility of hydrocephalus/IIH (Intracranial hypertension).
For your info, I have seen my Neuro 2 weeks ago and did an MRI too but he said I do not have any of these. I also saw a Ophthalmologist yesterday who said my optic nerves looked ok (and he cleared me of glaucoma as well).
I saw an ENT today and he did hearing tests and it was fine but said the dizziness I'm hearing might be cause of a crystal in the ear (not exactly BPPV).
I'm so scared if I have hydrocephalus/IIH and it's causing me to feel depressed and worried.

1. Pressure felt in the head from behind the bridge of the nose, worse when bending over.
2. General headaches because of the pressure, best way to describe it would be a Tension headache.
3. Stick neck and shoulders.
4. Pain sometimes with the eyes.
5. Dry nostrils.
6. Ear pressure and clicking noises.
7. Pain felt on the top, sides or back of head especially where the neck meets the head.
8. Dizziness
9. These symptoms can the extreme or quite low but exercise tends to make them increase.
Are you the same?

Yes i have most of the symptoms you describe except for the dry nose and neck pain. My neck is sometimes sore but not too much.
Do you experience any nausea or weakness in legs? How long have you been feeling this way?

No, no weaknesses. Initially my neck wasn't that sore but is now sore all the time.
