Spinal tap

Post by BamBAM »

Hi All

I recently rememberd something my neurologist commented on when I was going thru my first demylinating event, When he stuck the needle into my spine he commented that there was a lot of pressure in my spinal canal and the needle filled very quickly, I never thought much about these comments until all this talk about CCSVI and increased pressure in the CNS and that got me to thinking, Has anybody else ever had this type of comment from there Drs
Its not about the disability, Its about the ability!

By chance did your neuro take an opening pressure reading and if so, do you know what it was?

No, Unfortunately I was in the hospital slowly losing feeling from the chest down, Everything was a bit chaotic for me and this was way before CCSVI broke
