My Spinal CSF Leak- BIGGEST NEWS YET!! // Choosing between CT MYELOGRAM vs. Non-Targeted BLOOD PATCH

This girl's medical diagnosis story just got a whole lot better: we've scheduled an epidural blood patch procedure as my first spinal CSF leak treatment! I have the choice between getting a CT myelogram and getting a blood patch, and this video explains the rationale for each of those routes. A CT myelogram procedure is still on the table if this blood patch does not work, because of perineural cysts in my cervical spine that have a high chance of being CSF venous fistulas. I'm going less risky first with the blood patch. My epidural blood patch will technically be a blind blood patch, but it won't be completely blind because there ARE signs of a CSF leak on my spinal MRI. We have areas of interest, we just can't see a hole. We'll see how this goes, then re-evaluate the need for a CT myelogram. In the meantime please wish me luck with my CSF leak treatment! ○ Main WEBSITE: mommingwithmigraine.com ○ Daily Life: INSTAGRAM.com/mommingwithmigraine ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SOME PREVIOUS VIDEOS… Dr. Phil Show - Medical Gaslighting:    • Видео   Dr. Phil Q&A:    • Видео   The LATEST: My Spinal CSF Leak Evaluation (2022-2023) ○ POTS vs. Spinal CSF Leaks:    • Видео   ○ NEW MRI Findings!    • Видео   ○ Joint Hypermobility:    • Видео   ○ NUCCA & CCI:    • Видео   ○ Fascial Counterstrain (for IIH & more):    • Видео   ○ A POTS Episode Explained:    • Видео   ○ POTS Care Q&A- part 1::    • Видео   ○ POTS Care Q&A- part 2:    • Видео   FINDING OUT I WAS MISDIAGNOSED (2021) (and getting diagnosed with IIH/pseudotumor cerebri) ○ Am I Misdiagnosed?:    • Видео   ○ CSF Leak Diagnosis Update:    • Видео   ○ 48-hour Flat Test Vlog:    • Видео   ○ After Medical Gaslighting:    • Видео   ○ Sick Day Vlog & Canceled CSF Appt:    • Видео   ○ Diagnosis Story Update:    • Видео   ○ Diamox for IIH:    • Видео   ○ Getting OFF Diamox:    • Видео   ○ Passing the Tilt Table Test:    • Видео   ○ Advice for Patients:    • Видео   ○ On Invisible Illness, pros/cons:    • Видео   ○ What Fainting Feels Like:    • Видео   ○ Open Letter to Demi Lovato (“diabetic” ice cream):    • Видео   ○ Vestibular Therapy:    • Видео   ○ Ginger for Migraine Relief:    • Видео   ○ My Food Triggers:    • Видео   ○ Nausea Relief:    • Видео   ○ Migraine Life Modifications:    • Видео   ○ Harry Potter Sorting (Jen vs Migraine Jen):    • Видео   ○ Migraine Hacks (Migraine Jen Vlog):    • Видео   ○ Buddy & Baby A’s First Year Together:    • Видео   ○ Buddy’s Pet-to-Service Dog Story:    • Видео   ○ Service Dog Training, Basic Commands:    • Видео   ○ Choosing Service Dog Gear:    • Видео   ○ POTS Service Dog Task- DPT:    • Видео   ○ Service Dog Response, Episode Story:    • Видео   ○ Types of Working Dogs:    • Видео   ○ Need vs Want a Service Dog:    • Видео   ○ Time Required for a Service Dog:    • Видео   ○ Service Dog Misconceptions I Had:    • Видео   ○ We Tried Training with a Prong Collar:    • Видео   ○ Buddy’s “normal dog” Tricks:    • Видео   ○ Walk Rules when Off-Duty on a Hike:    • Видео   CODE: M7RYVALYCDTMQQKH, N8YDGLPITU4Z6BIF, YD9TFYKBDUOIWGGK ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: Though I talk about medical topics, nothing on my channel is meant as medical advice (for all statements, past or future).
