I had ptc when I was 13-15 yrs of age, about 10 yrs ago. I was released by my neurologist as healed, no problems. Yesterday I went in for a routine eye exam and PTC was picked up again. I now have an appoitment with my opthamologist again. PTC can be scary if you are not familiar with it. My PTC was able to be ocntroled with 3 spinal taps and medication but it can vary from person to person.
