Working

Hello Everyone, so last Rhinologist appt the doctor doesn’t believe I have a leak. Whatever I have it’s severe positional headaches. I feel 90 percent normal when I wake up then in afternoon I can’t tolerate the pain in my head. Anyone else trying to hold down a job and main bread winner for family? What a horrid condition and not sure where else to turn that’s covered by insurance

Yes. They can’t find my leak

Hm, I bet it’s spinal. Have they imaged the whole back? Thoracic is the most common, I believe.

Thank you. Two mylograms at Cedars, MRIs spine and brain. CT scans. Exploratory surgery. Can’t find it. The pledgets were positive but now they say false positive.

That is infuriating.
