I was diagnosed with psuedotumor cerebri, what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Labs, meds: Iron, thyroid profile, vit a level to start. I often use topamax (topiramate) as it also covers for secondary migraine. I also recommend formal visual field testing to monitor for damage to the optic nerve.
