    Hi there warm welcome. Yep keep well hydrated doesn't make headaches go but it does help. Good replies (as ever) My lower back pain was due to 5 spinal fluid extractions but I was told that when the blood goes back through the body it can cause pain not sure if that's right so DO ask the GP and if your at all worried call the Neuro Team. Its early days... You take care of yourself because without the people who care for us 'where-would-we-be'

    Hi there Oh goodness you survived its a hell that will ease honest - the good thing is you know there is a problem so get an appointment with your GP and talk to them about it, and get referred for councelling, you could also look at Headway site, they are brilliant. And just DITTo all Skippy has said and Macca too all positive.. We know what its like make this the start by making an appointment and ask about councelling it really, really helps... sending you all best wishes for a happier you...

    Hi there warm welcome to the site, glad that you found us. It's all quite normal and yep fatigue is being shattered and some, it will ease though just remember not to over do it, rest lots and keep well hydrated, and when the body says rest don't fight it listen to it... confidence will come back. take care, hope to hear more from you...

    Hi there Warm welcome to the site, glad that you found us. I was ages between appts I think its just how they do it, (although if they were the patients I think they'd get the despair it puts us through) my thought is though, if there was anything wrong they'd have your appt sooner. it takes a long time to heal so maybe too that's why its always so long... take things easy when you feel tired then rest up, keep well hydrated especially with the heat.

    Hi there warm welcome I had the full blown SAH, but know that non is just as hard to recover from, understand ect. keep hydrated as much as you can, it helps, pace yourself as much as you can... I think we all wonder why??? I don't know I've never known I've just learned to live with it... take care

    What wonderful news I too can only ditto the others.... Thank-you for the update, again huge well done..

    Nothing beats gut instint... And I think walking is a great way to build up strength... Doing a daily diary is great too gives something to focus on doing it and helps if there's a pattern. Remember keeping hydratated helps with headaches. And could just be the blood going back through the body that's causing it... take care.
