Sara,
Dr. Schievink handles any kinds of CFS leaks. I have had several. They are not sure all have been spontaneous. No one really knows for sure. Don't give up hope. Life can be good again. Send your info and have him see if he can help you. He may not be for everyone but he was for me. I did not have blood patches because he said they probably wouldn't have worked for me and I was from Florida. So I had surgical repairs. The last being in May of 2012.
Hope, health, and Happiness,
Berthabutt
