Sorry I haven't been on here lately, I've been dealing with the worst headache I've ever had. It started 10 days after the pain pump was put in. They gave me a migraine med, it didn't help, told me to try percocet, that didn't help, I tried every migraine therapy I could, nothing helped except MMJ. It felt like I had an axe in my head and was sobbing.

Got a blood patch two days ago. Got dizzier, but the axe went away. Saw the doc yesterday and she said it'll probably take a while to get better, just rest and more rest.

I was bothered by the fact that she said they normally wait 12 whopping weeks to do the blood patch. I just whined enough to get it done earlier, plus I know my body and knew it wasn't a normal migraine. I told them I'd go to the ER if they didn't fix me, and they said they didn't trust the docs at the hospital.

I'm still dizzy, in theory because my pressure was off for long enough. Never found an actual leak, but the doc said something about meningeal irritation. I honestly think it happened because we had sex and something must have moved.

So I'm still dizzy, but finally back at work today. Hopefully over the next few days I'll be much better.
