Hi Sweetrain, I googled it but can't find the site, I did find this one today on third age though and it's very similar?;

I see my Neurologist tomorrow. I went to the ER about two days after getting the blood patch done because I was so light headed. They gave me Meclezine and sent me home. I've had a couple of days where I felt a lot better but then the dizzy/light headed stuff comes back. Thank you for looking that info up for me. Do you remember where you found that?
