Hi Lilly,
My prayers are with you. I had a spinal tap done back in the early 1970's and after the test was done I wasn't able to move for 24 hrs. I had to lay flat on my back. Hopefully the medical field has made things a lot better so you don't have to go throught the same thing that I did. I wish you only the best and May God Bless You!

Well from what I've been told, the procedure hasn't changed alot but they numb the area before trying the tap. If they can't get the tap then they don't keep trying they cal it quits and try another time. Because spianl taps were so horrible back in the 70's is one of the reasons why I'm scared to do it. I just hope everything goes o.k. though. Thank you guys for all your support and prayers. You guys are just great to me. Thank you.
