Are there any other side affects from a CT Myelogram /spinal tap?
When injected I felt the fluid go doen uner my skin across my buttocks and down my left leg- was that suppose to happen?
Hi.
Your stay in the imaging centre may be short or long. But it is iportant to lie supine with a raised head. (One medium sized ipillow under the back of head will do). this is to avoid headache. The risk of headaches does increase, if you travel immediately after the procedure. But if you take care not to sit or stand for long, and can travel in your vehicle in a supine position, you may still be able to avoid that nagging postural headache.
Hope that helps. Please revert to me for any further queries.
