Default Second surgery to correct the first one.

Hello,

Anyone have to get a second surgery because of leakage from spinal cord?
Let me know, thanks!

Default

Are you talking about correcting a CSF leak, or something else (with severe headache), or something else?

Default drainage

It was due to drainage. I had some kind of blood and clear fluid that built up in my body that caused my headaches and the inability to get up on my own without screaming in pain.

Surgeon said it happens 1 in 100 people and it's rare. Guess it had to be me. But when they took me back in, they cut a hole in the incision from before and drained it into a rubber bulb that was hanging outside on my side. 4 days later I felt a lot better. Strange, guess that's why I wanted to know if anyone else had it happen to them.
