[|Human|] I had a lumbar puncture done 2 weeks and 1 day ago and a blood patch done a week ago today. I have been in SEVERE pain since, I still can t sleep on my right side. My pain starts in my lower back and travels up my right side into my neck and into just barely into my head most of the time and I feel like I am unable to move when that happens. The more severe of the episodes my right leg goes numb from my knee to my foot with the back and neck pain and a head ache so bad I feel like I am going to be sick. Today I started having vaginal bleeding and I got off of my menstrual cycle 1 week ago I am not sure what to do.
[|AI|]  Hi there. You could still be losing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from your lumbar puncture which causes headache. Also, there may be some compression on the nerves to you lower limb or less nutrition to the nerves due to a possible CSF leak. Kindly lie down with your lower limbs elevated over a pillow.  Chat Doctor. Consult your Doctor about this urgently if no relief in symptoms. Wishing you speedy recovery.
