 Re: Oboe and Health issues

It is called the Valsalva maneuver. I have a shunt in my head and when I hold my breath too long or try to lift heavy objects or strain in any way, I get a severe headache and I get very lightheaded. The neurosurgeon warned me that this might happen playing the oboe, but I have kept it from happening by proper breathing. The very first time I attempted to play an oboe, I got an excruciating headache and I nearly passed out. But that hasn't happened since. Apparently, I am a quick learner!
