and so, with little sanity left and the inabliity to continue being 'strong' i got to the doctors yesterday to describe my intense headaches i've been having since i was released from the hospital on thursday.
i pretty much just wanted to scream at the doctor 'FIX ME'....it was bad.
so, they tell me, they believe that i'm not feeling well because the motherfucking hole from my spinal tap didnt close correctly and i am now leaking spinal fluid inside my body.
and now that i know that, i pretty much could say, 'yeah, thats exactly what it felt like....'
so they do this insane bionic procedure on me yesterday. instead of another spinal tap, they do an epidural which is pretty much the same thing only without going back into my spinal cord. they take 40ccs of blood out of my arm and inject it into that space in my back. two bags of IV fluid and 20 minutes later i'm walking around, hungry as fuck, feeling good.
slight back pain, and a small headache just from having a motherfucking headache for six days straight.
i'm so far behind in life, i'm going to need my own version of superweek to catch up.
