I am still having a lot of issues since my decompression in December. I seem to have series of symptoms in "episodes." It is very strange and debilitating. I was just to see my PCP and she was wondering if my head pain was basilar migraines. I have been trying to get ahold of my NL and it is like pulling teeth to speak to a human being there. Here is the set of current symptoms:
Burning sensation all over face
Seeing yellow spots
Awful pain in hte back of my head/decompression site
(it actually feels like my brain is going to shoot out the back of my skull)
I still have not been able to get in with my NL. His office is rediculous! I finally called my PCP back and asked them to get me an appt. My NL said that there should NOT ever be a problem with me getting in to see him when needed. Well, this is the worst! I am def going to complain to him big time. I can't believe I have been feeling this bad and can't get an appt. I don't want to go to the ER, see a doc that I don't know/doesn't understand Chiar, wait forever and then just be pumped with drugs and sent home. Then they'd tell me that I need to follow up with my NL. What a damn joke!
This nausea is just sickening (no pun intended). I can't deal with it anymore. I didn't have severe nausea before I had
Sorry to hear you are feeling so bad. I understand not wanting to go to the ER. Has your NS been any help? Can you take zofran for the nausea?
Hope you get to see your NL soon.
