trying to help my mom with a CSF leak

[woobsy]

my mom has been diginosed with CSF/leak. She has had two blood patches and those have not helped. Is there a specialist for this? or other options? She feels like she will never get better. she has been going through this for a couple months now and cant do anything but lay at home. which is causing her to be depressed. any help on this would be great they cannot determine were the leak is so they are kinda stumped what to do. I mean there has to be something else they can do right?
its very hard seeing her not being able to sit up for more than 20 min at a time and no answers from the doctors what to do! i will take any help i can get on this. Is there a specialist somewere who deals with CSF? other treatment! please help

If blood patches did not work for the CSF leak, then surgery might be your only option at this time, assuming the site of the leak has been identified. You can discuss this option with your mother's neurologist.
