They're going to do a procedure on me tomorrow that sounds fairly interesting. They think my spine is slowly leaking fluid somewhere, thus causing a low pressure issue on my brain. I tried to tell them that it's just my blonde roots, but that didn't fly. So they're going to take some of my blood tomorrow and put it in the lining of my spine.

I will be thinking about you. I hope this works and makes those headaches go away. Let us know how you are!

[eemooretx]

I shall. I've got a great team of nurses up here taking care of me. Even the "housecleaner" stops and talks with me. *grin* You know me - I'm so shy.

Fingers are crossed for you.

Thanks Sugar - I've got everything crossed. They're doing the blood patch today.

Likewise. *HUGGERZ*

Sending along good vibes re the procedure *and* its results.

(Just in case they don't tell you: any spinal cord procedure, in itself, can generate amazing headaches. So, afterwords, do not try to sit up until they tell you, and even then, sit up very very slowly. Been there, etc.)

Thanks Sweetie. They're going to do the full spinal blood patch today. I've asked them for Valium before the procedure - *grin*.

Listen to him: I've had those headaches.

I hope it goes well, and they figure things out. remember to keep hydrated: that always contributes.

[eemooretx]

I shall indeed. *Huge hugs*. Thanks Honey.
