Have Programmable Shunt Placed And Getting Hot Cold Flashes, Dizziness And Funny Feeling In Ear. Is It Related?

Hi I have a programmable shunt on my right side and recently have been getting very severe hot flashes then very cold, a bit dizzy and also funny feeling in my ears as if one ear cannot hear as well as the other. Does this have anything to do with a problem with my shunt?

Dear the symptoms maybe related to the shunt.Anyway shunt is really easy to be examined from a doctor or even from one of your familiars.Anyway that's nothing to be worried because those are not shunt dysfunction symptoms.I would recommend XXXX 16mg twice daily for 10days and drink as often as possible chamomile tea.Wish my advice will help you
