Not as planned

Although the procedure has reduced the pain in my left hand, it left me with leaking spinal fluid that no one seems able or willing to repair with a patch. This spinal headache and nausea have been worse than the meningitis I had two years ago. I thought surely I would never live through such hell again.

I am at a great hospital, flat on my back, getting loaded with caffeine and fluids to help my body seal this leak on its own. But my lupus is flaring up, which may slow the healing.
