A member asked:
If someone got dizzy from idiopathic intracranial hypertension and headache, would you expect them to wrosen upon going form upright to supine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: There may be a postural component to the degree of headache. Also may worsen if you strain at a bowel movement. The headache is occurring from the increased intracranial pressure and one may not sense the degree of worsened headache.
