A member asked:
Does newly diagnosed hydrocephalous cause high blood pressure or is the high blood pressure causing the hydrocephalous?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May or may not: Hydrocephaloous is not caused by blood pressure but the stress of knowing or the headaches may cause blood presure issues. There may also be the problem of the increased intracranial pressure may cause a blood pressure elevation to compensate and low blood flow in the brain.
