Chloride (CSF) Questions

I am 40 years male, My right eye gets blank for about 10-20 sec when I raise from bed. Have consulted the doctor they had brain scanned every thing normal. They found CSF opening pressure more than 30. Used Diamox 250mg for 6 months now CSF pressure is also normal. Still my problem is not solved. Please advise.

Helllo Preet... 5 kg is not a lots of weight... Second if you take so much stress then it will disturb your hormonal system and will make the weight loosing more difficult... Keep up good dietary habits and avoid stress.. do regular exercise.

Hi, Please suggest Why sometimes external drainage is inserted after 20 days of craniotomy and does that liquid collected in the reservoir contains blood, csf and some white tissues?

If there is discharge found from the surgical site and many times it difficult to keep it open and hence the unwanted material needs to be brought out by putting a drain

Is it advisable to change from use of common salt to rock salt (potassium chloride)? will it lead to sodium depletion? or will it be better to take 50 percent each?

M B B S, M. D (Internal Medicine)
General Physician, Nellore
Modern medicine does not have any particular recommendation on this but you can do so if there are no contraindications such as diseases or medicines that increase potassium levels. Taking potassium chloride will not deplete sodium if your kidneys are functioning normally. You will get sodium from several other sources anyway. Table salt is not the only source of sodium.
