I'm looking for natural care options for a friend who was just diagnosed with ;\pseudotumor cerebri. All I find on the internet is weight loss. Are there any vitamins that would be helpful as well? Obviously she'll have to keep in touch with her doctor too.
**1. as the name indicates, pressure inside the skull is increased in such a way that although there isn't any growth but appearance is like of tumor.2. since age is not in history, it is worth mentioning that this occurs in women who are obese and are reaching menopause.3. since case is diagnosed thus the attending physician must have gone through relevant examination & investigations to rule out other health conditions.4. since treatment is aimed at the cause of pseudotumor, thus preventive aspect can be initiated from our side. fluid/salt restriction.. weight reduction if overweight. PS. make sure her vision is closely monitored, thus follow-up ophthalmologic examination [to note any change in vision] with MRI or CT scans should be done.. Ideal treatment for patient will be to go for surgical management of the disease, while Ayurveda drugs can be given till conservative management and after post surgery.
