Spinal tap is over!!

Whew!! :p Well the procedure is over and I'm home in bed feeling pretty good. It was a tiny bit uncomfortable but nothing major, so I was happy it went smoothly. No headache so far, just quite a bit of back soreness and pain. :(Mostly on the sides of my spine, not the injection site area. May be sore from having to lay down so much. ??? I dont do that very well. :)
Now the waiting begins... tick tock... tick tock... tick tock :icon_confused: I should hear something by this evening they said. Not all the tests will be finished but some will. I'm just praying for an answer and good news. :smileypray:
Well, I better get back in bed. Not supposed to be up this long. I'll keep u posted on what the dr. says. Meanwhile I guess I'll tie myself to the bed and catch up on all my Tivo! ;) :)) Have a great day Everyone! :hug:

Glad to hear things are going well so far.Hopefully with this test you get some answers.

Hoping for good news also, take care

Well, just don't keep chewing nails while waiting for report results?

THIS is the time you must learn patience, And perseverance. It can take 3-5 weeks for some test results to be 'processed' then more time for someone to write up the reports and send to your doc,....then more time for your doc to get around to reading it.
Just chill out, enjoy, I hope good weather and think on the good things you've got now.
Then w/the report, ask for a copy and start burning up the web! Be confused and ask us..... some of us have figured out parts of those test results? Then when you see your doc come armed with the key questions YOU want answered. Be prepared for obfuscation, dimunination of problems and further abiguities regarding prognoses. It is all part and parcel with the territories of pain, hurt, and hope we mite still retain.
Learn to keep crib notes on yourself about what's good or less good at different times and over periods of times. W/o notes? It'll all mush together.
Until you get your results? :D:hug::hug::hug:'s to tide you over until-the whatever. - j
