How Can One Get Rid Of Pain After A Myelogram Test ?
I had a myelogram 2 weeks ago today and a blood patch 2 days after that in which IPT dye was used. As soon as it was injected I started having severe pain. I am now hurting so bad in my low back down my tail bone , and left leg when I stand I just want to die. It is even moving from place to place while turning over in bed. How do I get this dye out? I can t take it much longer. Thanks

Welcome to HCM
Read your prob, in case of myelography that dye injected into spinal cord. that dye disappeare from there after complition of procedure. dye absorbed in to body fluid. it takes 72 hrs to remove from body. the symptoms what you feel , may be the side effect of that dye. it removed from body itself you should not do anything for it.
