Update....
I had the blood patch done at his office #3. I couldn't wait any longer because the headaches and light sensitivity were so bad. I haven't been able to give an update because the patch didn't take. In fact I think it got worse. The light sensitivity is so bad I can't look at my computer screen or phone. My wife and I spent the last two weeks trying to get in to see a specialist.
My appointment was this past Friday. We thought I was going to have some kind of leak test / study done. Well, the only order the doctor had was for a blood patch #4. Several phone calls were made Friday morning to rectify this. Unfortunately the leak test wasn't going to happen. I was in so much pain, I wasn't about to leave without anything being done. So I went ahead with blood patch #4. If and or when this one fails we have a plan in place. The specialist was great. I believe I'm in good hands now.
I'm posting this now because when the light sensitivity comes back I won't be able too. I hate to say it, but I don't think this latest blood patch is working. I was feeling good yesterday but today some symptoms are returning. I'll know for sure if it worked or not by Tuesday. Fingers crossed!
