A member asked:
I developed hydrocephalus from a subarachnoid hemorrage. some of my docs say i don't have it anymore because i don't have headaches. is this possible?

Comments: Not unique to develop a communicating hydrocephalus following a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Headaches may or may not be associated with this complication, and is merely a symptom (but absence might suggest a minimal impact at most). Would see the neurosurgeon who was involved initially, and get a definitive opinion.
