Hi Miles,

I'm sorry I can't help you but wanted to say I'm sorry for your headaches!!
Hopefully, someone can come on and give you better info.

Take care,

Hi Miles,

I really don't know anything about the surgery you had but I have decided to always tell anyone with an unexplained or confusing headache to read some about cfs leaks. I have this but am still learning myself. In layman terms it means I have a spinal fluid leak. One significant sign of this type of headache is that it is much worsewhen sitting or standing and usually mush much better if you lay down. I have read that some people have developed this leak after surgery so thought I would mention this to you. Best of luck to you!
