Comment by Craig on April 25, 2013 at 7:55pm Had my flu shot last week. ( I have continual ATN ) - a year or so back I had the flu ( influenza not the cold) : 2 weeks of hell, not knowing if I was coming or going, hard to tell what was worse, the flu or the ramped up ATN. I dread the thought of even the common cold - any physical 'illness' is so much worse when it mixes with the ATN.
Comment by Lyn on March 3, 2013 at 10:14pm I keep writing on this & then it drops out ! I have been trying to say that full blown (R) sided pain has returned after something "pinged " behind (R) ear where I had MVD , CSF leak & meningitis last july / Aug.Was off all meds ( Lyrica , Endep etc )but went to DR & now back on all including Oxycontin & Endone, Am due for review with nuerosurgeon next wk. wonder what he wiil say ?I have also been having (L) sided pain with occasional "electric shocks " some more severe than others & pressure in forehead & front of face, was hoping to get back to work as RN ,but not lokking good being on so many drugs! Has anyone else had failed MVDs & if so what was the outcome ? CHeers I"ll go back to seek solice in the garden now lol
