What could these MRI results signify: "Asymmetry of the dominant venous sinuses on the right side. Long and tapered stenosis of the left transverse sinus. Venous anastomosis between the right sinus and left internal jugular vein." Apart from IIH?
Does venous sinus stenosis give me an elevated risk of stroke or aneurysm or anything? Was told I have this after MRI & angiogram secondary to IIH, therefore weight loss instead of stenting is advisable.But what are the risks of the stenosis itself?
My ENT ordered a MRI because I have constant head pressure and dizziness. The results indicated possible IIH. Am wondering how serious this is and if their are any signs that warrant an ER visit that I should look out for while I wait to see a neuro.
Does IIH present with 24/7 pulsatile tinnitus in one ear only that relieves when you apply pressure on neck, right below jaw line? MRI, CT, Cerebral angiogram and Opthalmologist confirm no evidence of papilledema. Should I get LP as final test?
