Oh hun, I so understand about not being able to sit! Luckily I didn't get the dreaded headach , but my lower back has been incredibly sore. My LP was almost two weeks ago.

If I have read and researched correctly, the spinal fluid replenishes itself at a pretty slow rate, and the headache is a red flag for a leak. Please let your neurologist know what is going on. I have read of folks getting what's called a blood patch and receiving almost immediate relief from the headache.

I do hope you get some relief soon.

Hugs,
Minnie

How awful!!!  If your neurologist can't get you in immediately- I think I'd go to the Urgent Care.

I second the seeking medical care. Mine only lasted three weeks. Yikes that would hurt.

Please go to your neurologist!  There is no reason for you to go on this long with a post LP headache.  

Best of Luck,
Lisa
