First off, let me just say this:
SPINAL TAPS FUCKING HURT LIKE HELL!
Ah, that done, Intra muscular valium is a nice nice drug but does not stop the pain. It just kept me from throwing a hissy fit when the needle went in.
It took about an hour, thirty to get the damn needle into my spine properly and thirty to get the pressure from a whopping 300 down to 70.
Normal is between 60 and 180. I was flat on my stomach under fluroscope for the test and then rolled to be flat on my back for five hours afterwards. Percoset is a nice drug. I came home and slept at my folks. I woke up with a massive headache. I could not stand up at all without someone holding me. I called the neurologist who said I needed to stay on my back for the rest of the weekend.
Just remember folks. SPINAL TAPS FUCKING SUCK.
