I did a search this was the most simple description of the disease.
Pseudotumor cerebri, also called benign intracranial hypertension, literally means "false brain tumor." It is caused by increased pressure within the brain and is most common in women between the ages of 20 and 50. Symptoms of pseudotumor cerebri, which include headache, nausea, vomiting, and pulsating intracranial noises, closely mimic symptoms of brain tumors, possibly because of the abnormal buildup of pressure within the brain.
Hello! The given defination of PTC is accuarate. The only thing I can add to it for general purpose is PTC can cause
visual problem (blurried vision, blackouts, even blind). Also, PTC causes headaches (migrianes) that don't go away for some.
So far, I have been one of the "lucky" with no major symptomes bc it was dianosed very early. I was wondering if anyone was dx with PTC bc it lead up to my dx for PCOS.
