<strong>Fluids</strong> <strong>Hypertension</strong> <strong>Syndromes</strong> – Dr. Leonardo Izecksohn – page 73<br />

In these 10 patients with visual auras, we found:<br />

- 6 patients (60%) presented intraocular pressures from 18 to 27 mmHg;<br />

- 3 patients (30%) presented Glaucoma (2 incipient and 1 advanced);<br />

- 5 patients (50%) presented minimal Optic Nerves’ borders edema (1 minimum and 4 evident), and 1<br />

of these with peri-vascular white sheaths around the Optic Nerves’ disk vessels.<br />

- All 10 patients with visual aura presented at least one of the above sicknesses.<br />

We conclude that Visual Aura is a sure (100%) symptom of Ocular or Cerebrospinal <strong>Fluids</strong> <strong>Hypertension</strong><br />

<strong>Syndromes</strong>.<br />

VI- 24 – Somnolence: From the 931 patients with migraines, we collected nine women (no man) with<br />

excessive somnolence, seven only at morning and two at other hours.<br />

Their average age was 38.4-year-old. These nine patients presented more 43 other alternative signs<br />

and symptoms.<br />

The most frequents signs and symptoms at these nine women were:<br />

- 6 patients with tearfulness or rhinitis;<br />

- 5 patients with ocular migraines;<br />

- 5 patients with temporal or head-top (vertex) migraines;<br />

- 4 patients with wide frontal migraines, and<br />

- 4 patients with nausea and retching or vomits.<br />

Between the other less frequent signs and symptoms,<br />

- 1 patient, with advanced Glaucoma, presented paresis of both superior eyelids.<br />

The nine patients with excessive somnolence had the Etiologies:<br />

- 7 patients (78%) drank excessive water, with an average of 3.7 liters a day;<br />

- 6 patients (66.6%) drank caffeine, as coffee, tea, mate or soft drinks daily.<br />

-2 patients (22%) drank beer;<br />

-1 patient (11%) drank wine;<br />

-1 patient (11%) presented renal stones;<br />

-1 patient (11%) had excessive daily visual strain;<br />

-1 patient (11%) drank medication which rise the fluid pressures;<br />

-1 patient (11%) presented visceral disturbances.<br />

In these nine patients with excessive somnolence, we found:<br />

- 6 patients (67%) presented intraocular pressures from 18 to 26 mmHg;<br />

- 6 patients (67%) presented Optic Nerves’ borders edema (4 minimum and 2 evident),<br />

- 4 patients (44%) had visibility of their lamina cribosa pores;<br />

- 3 patients (33%) presented Glaucoma (1 suspect and 2 advanced);<br />

- 1 patient (11%) with Optic Nerves' borders edema had peri-vascular white sheaths around the ON´<br />

disk vessels.<br />

- All the nine patients with excessive somnolence had some of the above sicknesses.<br />

We conclude that women’s excessive somnolence is a sure (100%) symptom of Ocular or<br />

Cerebrospinal <strong>Fluids</strong> <strong>Hypertension</strong> <strong>Syndromes</strong>.<br />

VI- 25 – Buzzing: From our 931 <strong>Migraines</strong> patients, we collected eight patients (0.8%) with Buzzing<br />

or sound disturbances. They were four men and four women, with average age of 43.1 years.<br />

We consider that buzzing is a symptom only from the Inner Ears <strong>Fluids</strong> <strong>Hypertension</strong> Syndrome.
