1/8/2023 0 Comments Back 4 blood patch notesI wouldn’t say 100% yet, and I’m definitely in more back pain just because the original injury/surgery never had rehab time. I went from 0 to 60 in terms of household activity and amazingly I am maintaining pretty well! Still get symptoms but it takes longer and lasts a shorter amount of time. Same thing happened, and by mid March i suddenly felt a lot better again! This time my “better” lasts up to a week at a time!!! Then the pandemic slammed us and my sons moved back home from college. Thought in August that it must have failed, but end of October suddenly felt much better!! But after a few days of better, I’d feel low pressure again, and cycled like that. I was Confused, exhausted constantly and sat in a chair or took one very short walk outside. Some days i felt like high pressure, other days I felt like low pressure. I took Diamox for the first few weeks both times, and after i went off of that, spent a good 2 months feeling pretty awful. 1st set was in August, 2nd set was in January. I’ve been through 2 rounds of 3 patches now. If you think you have an emergency, please call your doctor or emergency services immediately.
