Spinal Tap

Hi,
I am sorry that you are still in limbo when it comes to your diagnosis, to me their is nothing worst than the not knowing what's going on! I've had several spinal tap's through out my life, and I am here to tell you that they are not as bad as everyone says they are.
The one thing that I will recommend you do is, relax. When the Doctor has you positioned for your spinal tab make sure to take deep breaths and to put your mind at ease..... Think of something pleasant and fix your eyes to a spot on the wall or the bed, or the room. The more relax that you are, the easier the procedure will be.
So go through your tests and I hope that everything will turn out to be positive for you. Let's hope that the diagnosis and prognosis is a good one.... OK? Don't cross the bridge until you get there. I've been there and done that, and it does not do you good to think negatively! Trust me! Stay positive and keep your faith.
Take care,
Millie
