Guest guest Posted October 21, 2000 Report Share Posted October 21, 2000 There have been a lot of people writing about myelograms lately. I had one before just before they found the chiari and I hope to never have another. The test itself wasn't bad, just the after effects. Right after it I had to go for a c-scan and blood tests for ms. I was told to sit up at home for 24 hrs. so I wouldn't get a headache or other problems. Only thing they had me flat on my back for three hrs. afterwards for the other tests. Because of that I ended up sick and also with the headache from hell. The dye had gone into my brain from being down so long. I didn't know I could be so sick and in such pain. I lost a week of work because of that. Couldn't move my head for the entire week without pain. Sounds like everyone has been having the same problems from theirs. I won't have another one I know for sure. I didn't know if you have chiari you shouldn't have one. Everyone take care.
