Has a diagnosis been made as to what caused the Hydrocephalus ?
Hydrocephalus can be caused from many things. AAI, Chiari and GME are a few. From what you describe as symptoms it could be any of these things. If Chiari, MRI and Spinal Tap are the only way to properly diagnose. It is important to know what you are dealing with as they all have diff treatment plans.
