Epidural Headache
6 Answers
A question for Sqad, or anyone who has experience! I had a caudal epidural 3 Weeks ago. I had a banging headache the same evening, which I put down to the sedation. But whilst the headache is milder, it is constant. I’ve spoken to my GP, and they basically told me to wait a couple of months for it to disappear.
But it’s not going anywhere, and I have a pain behind my left eye as well. Yesterday I had a very sharp stabbing pain in my left eye which felt like something had flown into it, but there was nothing there. Weeks ago. I had a banging headache the same evening, which I put down to the sedation. But whilst the headache is milder, it is constant. I’ve spoken to my GP, and they basically told me to wait a couple of months for it to disappear.
But it’s not going anywhere, and I have a pain behind my left eye as well. Yesterday I had a very sharp stabbing pain in my left eye which felt like something had flown into it, but there was nothing there. Should I be more pushy with the doctor, or will this actually go away eventually?

I would be inclined to wait and see

and / or ring up the anaesthetic department of the hospital where you had it and ask if you can speak to someone about caudal headache ( and I think they will say wait and see)

you will probably have read that for 'ordinary' epidurals.
