• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I have a similar thing, but mine is called Hydrosphaleous(not sure on that spelling), where there is excess fluid on my brain and it drains down my spine. Doctors aren't sure but they think this could be the reason behind my scoliosis. The first thing the draining would do if gone untreated would of crippled me, then caused me to loose my sight. But I have what is called a V-P Shunt in my head thats constantly draining the fluid into my stomach and have to be checked every 6months because if anything goes wrong with the shunt I could go into a comma, which almost happened twice already.
