Could The Stoppage Of Spinal Simulator Cause A Leakage?
Hello. I have both degenerative disc both lumber and cervical...spinal stimulators, also l. & c. Also epileptic and fibromyalgia patient. I have been for the last week had a very different feeling migraine, in that I cannot stand without pain getting so bad I am in tears. I am wondering if I could have a spinal leak. I have had my stimulators for nearly 3 years; top one stopped working months ago....could these cause a leak? Peace
I would like to know more about your headache: is the headache triggered by standing up position ? This could indicate possible leaking or endocranial hypotension. As long as you do not have such headache pattern, there is nothing to worry about! Anyway, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician and discussing on the possibility of taking amytriptyline, which would help for headaches and back pain too.
Hope you will find this answer helpful! Best wishes, Dr. Aida
