Hello Jenny:
I can share two LP stories with you.
I had a lp @ 15 years ago, while I was in the hospitalfor something else. A resident came in and performed the LP, I was in bed. went to sleep @ an hour later, and woke up with no problems.
My wife had one done, @ a year ago, and had heard of all potential problems, and voiced them to nurses.
She was assured that procedure was much safer as the needles used had gotten so thin, that it was much less of a problem.
I have always heard that you should not get out of bed for an hour after procedure.
Great luck. And Merry Christmas.
John
And don't you like how we get reassurances from people NOT getting the procedure?
