Papilledema

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 

Is anyone familiar with papilledema and have experiance with it? My opthalmologist discovered it this past week during a follow-up from a recent ER visit. I woke up with a blind spot and tingling on the left side of my body... The blind spot and the tingling together was new, so the nurse had me go in to the ER.

 

Anyway, I had an MRI done in March after a possible TIA and it came back clear, so the Dr. thinks it is possibly caused by psuedotumor cerebri, NOT a brain tumor/mass.

 

If anybody has any insight I would appreciate it. I'm beyond frustrated with the tingling in my body that occurs frequently, the blind spots (that's happened 3 X's in the last 2-3 years), and the apparent inflammation in my body.
