Caesar Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 I have to go and get a Lumbar puncture procedure (otherwise known as a spinal tap) on thursday. A couple weeks ago I got into a car accident (thats why I was inactive for a week) and now my doctor has ordered a spinal tap. I have already had a CATscan last week, so I really dont know whats going on Anyway, if anyone here has had this done, can you tell me what to expect?

Sam Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 I remember when my sister got one a few years ago. I can't tell you first hand what to expect though. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caesar Posted November 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 I got it this morning. It hurts like hell. They stick needles into your spine to draw out blood or whatever their after. Very painfull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
