Another Leak

I started having leak symptoms in June of 2024. I was pregnant with twins at the time. It started as feeling dizzy when I got up out of bed in the morning. Dizzy like a head rush feeling. Then it turned to feeling dizzy anytime I stood up and then even if I bent over and stood back up, I would feel dizzy. I also started getting headaches when I would bend over. Then I started feeling pressure in my ears. Then pulsating tinnitus. My neck became very stiff but also felt very unstable and kept cracking. And then extreme headaches and facial pain. It was the darkest time of my life, I was in so much pain and I was so scared that I would be bedridden for the rest of my life and I wouldn’t be able to care for my children. I got a blood patch in November of 2024 and things have been fine since.

Some of my symptoms have returned this week. It started out was feeling dizzy when I would get out of bed. And now I feel dizzy anytime I stand up from sitting. I’m also feeling pressure in my ears, and the bone cracks are back. I’m terrified. I went to the ER and despite having a previous confirmed leak, they literally did nothing. Why would the leak come back after 18 months?!
