Abstract
Pseudotumour cerebri may be idiopathic or secondary. Clinicians must take care to exclude secondary causes of raised intracranial pressure in all patients. We report a case that illustrates the importance of asking about dietary intake and supplements when evaluating a patient with pseudotumour cerebri.
