In my first spinal tap, they LOST the fluid. They drew blood at the same time and the lab received both the fluid and blood. They did the preliminary on the fluid, then it either went missing or they thought they were done. Nobody knows where the blood went.
I won't say which clinic it was at but they had a pretty good reputation. A neuro did the tap himself. My back was already hurting so the actual puncture, which he tried a few times before he hit the spot, didn't hurt. I drove home. He said if I got a headache go to the ER. It was a two hour drive back home and I got in bed for a couple of hours, then cooked a meal. It was actually less painful and uncomfortable than my dental crown last month.
I was thinking the same thing about AL. In fact, someone asked me what supplements I was taking and I thought about Al's supplements and his plateau.
