Hi, I'm 27 years old & since I was I
have had a total of 3 Lumber punctures!
The thing is since the first one I have
always had pain in my lower back leading
to pain going down my leg or legs which I
was told is syatica?? I have been in
hospital for the pain in my back but no
one has ever given me a proper
explanation. Now over the last month or so
I have been experiencing excrutiatingly
painful headaches (or maybe the are
migraines- I don't know as I have never
suffered from haedaches of any sort
before) but these are now accompanied with
it feeling like something is pulling my
hips apart at the bottom of my back along
with the feeling that something is
streching my legs which is very painful
& quite frightening. I have not been
to my GP as they will only give me
painkillers which is fine short term but
this is getting to the stage where I am
having these headaches/hip/back/leg pains
every couple of days. Does anyone know
what this might be or what I can do to
stop it???2
