WARNING:#Women are getting CSF leaks from botched #epidurals & #spinals & #doctors are not informing them. Did u know that? Of course you didn’t. They only give women a #bloodpatch fix if they complain.

@claralexlobo @MarcVandeVelde6 Offer #bloodpatch early if headache increases in severity after diagnosis. If it reduces in severity you can wait for spontaneous resolution as EBP might not be needed after all

Epidural blood patch (EBP) remains the management technique with greatest immediate success, most headaches resolve over time but may cause mild-severe disability

@shiftms I have suffered more with MS than anything ever in my life.
Anyone out there have to have a #bloodpatch inserted into their spine like a reverse spinal tap?
In #California waiting, #Praying & hoping this next #bloodpatch helps seal my #csfleak after 20 months of extremely debilitating pain.
🙏
Ultimately you owe it to the patient to support them through the consequences ADP
Provide info such as @labourpainsOAA make sure they are followed up daily & offer treatment #BloodPatch in timely fashion.
@SafePartum @SOAPHQ @ASRA_Society @MySMFM @acog @BCMAnesthesia The blood draw is unacceptable in this video. It is going epidural and requires sterile gloves and drapes #sterile #bloodpatch @ASRA_Society @ASPN_PainNeuro

#CSFLeaks are devastating! Outside is my favorite place to be. I miss it SO much - sunrise & sunsets, season changes. 15 months bedridden. 507 days. Hoping, praying, asking for a miracle Grateful to the doctors trying to help. @AndrewCallenMD
#bloodPatch @csfleakuk @csfleakaware
At one point, I was being evaluated for a #CSFleak and offered a #BloodPatch procedure. That correlation with #POTS and #EDS is known, so it’s not far fetched. I opted to try more, less invasive treatments before committing to the blood patch.
