Guest guest Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Hi, How bad does it hurt? Guess it depends on your tolerance for pain & how talented the person performing it is. It's only momentary. Try to focus on something else while it's being done. Visualize the ocean or something you really like. I didn't like the way they performed mine. Other people had told me a spinal tap was nothing to worry about & so it made me feel like the person who did mine was an amateur. Also, afterward, the spinal tap patient should be reclining for up to 3 days, otherwise bad dizziness and/or headache. I was down for 3 days and at one point during that time, I thought I might die. However, not everyone has this terrible of an experience. Not that this probably helps you, but I hope never to have a procedure like that again. Glad to hear of you being approved.

Look well, therefore, to this day.- Sanskrit Proverb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
