Hi Madalyn,

Glad you could join us. Smile

I'm Mary. I'm 45 years old and dx'ed with hydro at age 37. It was believed that I had hydro since birth, but compensated for it till I couldn't any longer. I had an Endoscopic 3rd Ventriculostomy (ETV) in 2002 and a VP shunt placed in 2004.

So far, I've had no complications.

~Mary
