Asked By:acnegone508 in Brockton, Massachusetts

I’ve been diagnosed with IIH (idiopathic intracranial hypertension) since 2017! I’m currently on Diamox to treat it. I’ve been self conscious about my forehead for years and wanted to know if this will affect me getting the SHAprocedure.I also have an intravenous stent for my IIH.
