== Symptoms of spinal leaks of cerebrospinal fluid == Symptoms of cerebrospinal fluid leaks include '''positional headaches''', which may be intense. The headaches are worse when upright and get better lying down. "The headache usually is in the back of the head or base of the skull, but can also occur in the front, sides or all over the head. It is rarely on just one side of the head, and often is described as a 'pulling sensation' from the head to the neck. The severity of the headache can range from mild to very severe and disabling."<ref>{{Cite web | url = https://www.cedars-sinai.org/programs/neurology-neurosurgery/clinical/csf-leak/curable-cause-of-headache.html | title = CSF Leak: A Curable Cause of Headache | website = Cedars-Sinai|language=en-US|access-date=2019-08-27}}</ref> Other symptoms are: * migraine * nausea * blurred vision * dementia––"[b]ehavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) is a devastating early onset dementia[,]... and in spontaneous intracranial hypotension, is rare and associated with brain sagging and hypersomnolence" * coma
