I had a
lumbar puncture five and a half weeks ago, to diagnose meningitis. Before I had the
lumbar puncture, I had very bad lower back pain, stiff neck and severe headache. After the lumbar puncture was done, I felt complete relief - no back, neck or head pain - it was like a huge weight had been lifted and all the pressure was gone. I felt the best I'd felt in months!!!
However, the next day, the head and neck pain were back, but no pain in my lower back?
