Severe reaction to spinal tap

Oh wow! Does not sound pleasant at all. Have you called your doc to let them know whats going on? Maybe they will have some suggestions on things you can do to help the spasms quite down a bit. I hope it will pass for you quickly!

I really hope this calms down for you

Sounds awful and I hope the soma helps!

Hi Judy,

I'm doing a lot better, thanks for asking. I still have some abdominal pain, probably leftover sore muscles from the muscle spasms I had on Wednesday, but it's not too bad.

It was a very odd reaction to a spinal tap, that's for sure! :)
