It's not subtle: Hydrocephalus causes headaches, vision problems, sleepiness, etc. Note: most headaches are NOT hydrocephalus. Read the free monograph, Hydrocephalus: An Owner's Manual, at http://surgeonwriter.com/hydrolog/ It's FREE, brief, informative, and interesting. It will answer many of your questions. Good luck.

Hydrocephalus: Hydrocephalus is a condition where too much cerebrospinal fluid collects within the brain. Early symptoms are headaches which are not easily treated with over the counter medications. As the disorder progresses there can by nausea and vomiting. A consultation with a neurologist might be helpful to determine if you have hydrocephalus.
