Reply To: Spinal Tap

Sorry suzanne, i haven’t had to have one of those blood patches.:) i do believe they inject some of your blood into the spinal area. it kind of acts like fix-a-flat, plugs the holes.
actually i’ve had more then 7, forgot a few from my early migraine years:o i’ve only had 5 since aug 05. they all run the gamot as far as protein counts go 43-400plus. of course being as the last 5 were done each time i was paralyzed-it made them painless and carefree, just laid there and the drs did all the work.:D
some were for meningitis, west nile, gbs and i could go on if i could remember what they were for-i’ll have to pick my hubbies brain for that info.
I think I know why my Back hurts All the time!!!!:D
