I'm about 9 weeks into my surgery, and i been feeling symptoms that i haven't felt in the last few weeks until about this past week. I've been waking up in the middle of the night with pounding headaches. i go back to sleep and when i wake up again its still there. Not sure if that is a normal thing. Lately I've been feeling weaker then normal and I've just been feeling like something is wrong and not sure how to handle it. Any suggestions? anyone else have any of these side effects or any other ones?
Are you still taking muscle relaxers? A few weeks after my decompression I was feeling better, so I stop taking my medicines, and the headaches started again. I call my NS and they told me to continue with muscle relaxers and it worked. You should call you doctor to see what they recommend.
