I’m so sorry you’re in more pain. I don’t really know what to say, but I wanted to let you know that I am thinking about you and wishing with you.

Is Diamox an option? Or will that just cause your CSF to drop further and cause more pain> What about the caffeine injection you can get to help with post LP pain? Just throwing ideas around. I’m sorry your in pain, still, again.

Nothing worse than pain that just won’t go away. Here’s hoping that neurosurgeon can fix you up SOON. I’m so sorry you’re going through this.

Is the blood patch really just the modern version of leeches?

I’m so sorry this goes from bad to worse. But lying down helps? That’s good, right?

I’m sorry that the blood patch didn’t work (what is a blood patch, anyway?), that truly sucks. Maybe the time you spent lying on the hospital floor, contracting H1N1 will help offset your headache.

I hope your hospital trip today goes better.

Here is your chance to be a pioneer in the lay down movement. Since laying down relieves your pain, we ought to engineer you a lay down scooter by mounting a bed on handicap scooter. You can see to drive with cameras and mirrors. Perhaps we can enclose you in a giant cigar tube sort of thing with just your head sticking out, to keep you out of the elements. I can see you now, zooming around the campus, the lay down girl with the overflowing brain. Hope you smiled just a little at the thought.
