Another one that skipped the LP here, due to my happy little brain lesions.

I had both done at the same time. My neuro just said I would need to have blood drawn after the procedure.

I guess that will become my statement in the future when I answer the question. Good for people to know how it can go wrong. I don't ever want to scare anybody. Let us know when you go in, will save prayers for you.

I remember having to have blood taken just before my LP. I was never told why, never gave it a second thought until now.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! A good explanation!! There is blood work and there is THAT BLOODWORK done in conjunction with the LP/ST. Different, very different! We all get loads of bloodwork for mimics etc, but this blood work is a very different animal and might well be the defining piece in your puzzle. I have had 4 LPs all with bloodwork, and for one the LP was actually delated till the orders for the bloodwork showed up...the Radiologist refused to proceed til then, said it would be a waste of time and unfair to me. Ooops, need to introduce myself soon...I'm a stowaway from that other place. Tante |

OMG, all of that sounds so aweful! I hope they don't "have" to redo yours! I'm just going to do the happy dance with BG that I never had to get an LP.

I even looked at the blood work my Dr did and he didn't even do blood that has o-bands, he wasn't testing me for MS, he was just doing the LP to get me off his back.
