Holy fucking fuck. I had a spinal tap last Wednesday and I am still stuck in bed recovering from it! For those who don't know what that is, it's when they stick a ginormous needle into your spinal chord and take out spinal fluid so they can test it for different illnesses. Not only does my back hurt like a bitch, but if I try to sit up my head feels like it's going to explode D:
I called the hospital today and the doctor told me that I need to just drink caffeine until my head stops hurting. If this doesn't work then I have to come in tomorrow and they have to take out blood then inject it back into where I had the spinal tap which I really REALLY DO NOT WANT. Holy fuck I do not want to have to do that. So I'm in bed with a six pack of Mountain Dew and my fingers crossed that this is going to work.
So, how is everyone else's Valentine's Day going so far? I hope it's a lot better than mine! :D
