So after having the epidural I ended up with a spinal fluid leak.. they did a blood patch Thursday that didn’t work and I have had such an excruciating headache since and the only way to make it feel better is to lay completely flat. It’s depressing because it makes it hard to take care of my own son when I’m in so much pain I could scream. I’ve tried everything it feels and can’t get into my doctor to have another blood patch done till Monday. Any other mamas go through something similar with the epidural and anything help you? 😢💔
Thank You! I went to the Er and they didn’t have an anesthesiologist available so gave me a migraine cocktail instead that didn’t work
I went to the ER and they did my second blood patch there. Is that an option for you?
I think that’s what I’m going to do. I can’t handle the pain and it’s depressing not being able to care for my son the way I should
Prayers for you mama. Thankfully I never had one and I wish more people were made aware of the dangers so they could avoid this scenario. I really really really hope you feel better fast!!!
