OH MY WORD GIRL!!!! You do have it rough especially with the syncope episodes you suffer from. That would scare the heck out of me. I know what you mean about your babies being your therapy. I use to suffer from horrible panick attacks that left me useless and in a corner in horrible fear. Well guess what!! Sassy cured me. I don't know what happened but about 4 months after I purchased her i quit having the panic attacks and havn't had but 2 since i got her 5 years ago! They are amazing for therapy. They are truly man's best friends aren't they. I do hope your doctor can give you something for your hydrocephelus maybe they can figure out something that will help.

Headaches and some symptoms have worsened over the years so I am not real sure what they are going to do. One neurologist just told me he wouldn't treat me for what he called basal artery migraines due to all my other health issues.
So for now I just take it one day at a time. I have Vasso Depressor syncope too so the meds that would give me would bottom me out on Blood pressure.
So I take a lot of naps during the day and these lil Yorkies are my therapy to get me back up and going.
