I just had this procedure done today. Last night i didn't sleep that good because I was so worried about this procedure. A few days ago my neurologist prescribed me a prescription for a sedative. This morning, I took 1 pill an hour before I had to be at the office and then right before they started the procedure. The only pain I felt was when the doctor injected the numbing medication and that felt like a bee sting. All and all that's the only pain that I felt. My doctor did a great job of explaining everything that I was going to experience and everything that I could possibly experience. Nevertheless all that worrying was just all in my head the procedure is not that bad. I read all these reviews and looked at this video prior to my procedure and I did fine. Not to say everyone is lying but every case is different. I was actually lying on my stomach during my procedure. Good luck to anyone who reads this and has to go through this procedure. You have my prayers. 🙏
@Nicole-cr2ql ask your neurologist for some valume pills. It will bring your anxiety down. I'm not sure if you are a God-fearing person, but I'll be praying for you. 🙏 you got this.
Thank you for this comment! I need to have a spinal tap next week to move forward with my Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis/and treatment. I am very scared after hearing horror stories, although I read somewhere it is actually less painful/invasive than an epidural. And I survived two of those easily. So combine that with your wonderful reassuring comment and I KNOW with confidence I can do this! Thank you for posting. And my prayers are with you, with whatever medical issues you might have.
@lauraabbott6235 Thanks for your prayers, and I thank God that I can share my testimony and it could reach the different people who have to go through this procedure. I got diagnosed with MS this past December, and O started treatment in January 2024. My prayers are with you as well. Take care 🙂
mine went much better than expected, no pain during procedure, just initial minor prick from lidocaine. the worst of it was back pain for several days after. if u get this done, remember to lay down for 1-2 days, no strenuous activity, drink lots of water and other fluids with caffeine to avoid that notorius, scary LP headache. i'm 1 week post and my back is getting better every day. the techs were super nice at the facility. it was x-ray guided, and i kept on my regular clothes the whole time. some places may make you change into a gown. sooo, i laid on my stomach for lidocaine stick, then LP puncture. few minutes later , they turned me on my left side for spinal fluid to drain. def not the horror show I expected AT ALL. no worries~
I got this done bedside first it was the worst pain I’ve ever had and I’ve been in and out of the hospital a lot. The pain gave me sweats and I also ended up throwing up.. After they did it under x ray it wasn’t so bad I was super nervous because the first time hurt incredibly bad. It just felt like a lightning bolt went through my leg. Also the headache I got the next day was intense… when I would be laying down all fine but the second I would get up I would have an intense headache and would immediately throw up. Thankfully I got over it by drinking lots of caffeine like the neurologist suggested.
Testing for MS I had it twice in a two week span due to not being able to extract fluid the first time. Took an hour both times, two different spots first time and three the second. Incredibly painful. Felt every nerve in my hips and thighs. Second time they gave me two 50s of fentanyl just to make it through. Traumatic experience second only to wisdom teeth removal while awake.
My granddaughter is having this done today to test for meningitis. I had it done about 20 years ago and it didn't hurt me so much so I guess it's different for each person? Or maybe depends on the size of the needle or where the needle is put in?
I had two in 24 hours. First really uncomfortable kept hitting the nerves like having electric shock gave up after 20 minutes. 2nd one apart from freezing the erea all over in 15 minutes hardly felt a thing.
I got mine yesterday. A 10 minute procedure with half an hour recovery time lying flat... took FIVE HOURS. A junior doctor and a senior doctor had 7 failed attempts between them. The junior docs first attempt touched something it shouldnt have cause I vomitted. Finally they sent me up to the anaesthetics team. Took him another 7 attempts before he finally got it. It was his "one last try" before he was going to let someone else try, by which point i was ready to say no, i was going home. It didnt hurt as such but it was one of the most uncomfortable feelings ive ever had in my life and i could feel everything popping and it just wasnt fun. If i ever have to have another one im going to demand sedation cause i couldnt go through that again. Today my back is black and blue, im stiff all over and my spine looks like a pin cushion.
I just got it done. They had to try again my spine is different it hurt. But I'm glad it's done. They got what they needed but placing the needle wasn't pleasant.
I had 8 diffrent punctures done in one sitting. The doctor had troubles finding the spot to drain. I was guiding him by where I was feeling pain. I'd rather die next time than get this done again. I still have pain on right side of lower back, thigh and knee.
I had one of these done yesterday but unfortunately the lidocaine didn’t work for me and I felt the whole procedure 🥲 pretty nasty pain definitely up there as the worst I’ve ever experienced. I had always suspected I was resistant to local anaesthetic but this was a terrible way to find out loll.. no headache yet though and I wasn’t made to lie down afterwards, just ate plenty and drank a lot of fluids
What will training include after the LP operation? 1. Encourage mobility as much as possible 2. Adults should lie on their stomachs 3. Children should lie on their stomachs 4. Avoid excessive drinking
I had a LP performed yesterday but after 10 attempts & it didn’t work. I had bleeding, still loss of feeling to most of my left side & unable to stand/walk still. I’m in the worst pain ever & this was the worst thing I’ve ever gone through I felt everything for 2 hours.
@@aali8110 hi. I spent 5 days in hospital- They were in the wrong spot & were actually on my spinal cord so I am very thankful & lucky to be walking still. I’m in a lot of pain still but that’s to be expected after this & having fibromyalgia. 5 days later I had another one under xray & it was successful the first time & the only thing I felt was when the needle was removed & it just made me gag. Then I had 5 hours on strict bed rest unable to move or sit up - then I sent myself home as I then had no one to watch my son.
I had lp done last month.. But actually i was really scared to death that i cried a lot 🥺 During the first attempt i could not lay still.. As soon as the doctor touches my spinal area i move.. Second attempt i tried my best to stay still... Though they could enter my spinal they could not extract the fluid and during the third attempt i literally begged them to give me anaesthesia nd yeah that was the fourth successful attempt.. I had very high pressure in csf nd was diagnosed with IIH... But it wasn't that painfull as i was under sedation... And i had a 7hours bed rest
Multiple resources state that the bevel is to be directed parallel to the long axis of the spine i.e. right or left if in sitting position, & up or down if in lateral decubitus - in other words you ought to direct the bevel towards the flanks in either position. This video says otherwise.
It would be too painful. I had it done and the doctor injected lidocaine, even that relatively superficial injection was very painful in that area. Even with the lidocaine, the lumbar puncture itself was painful. I can’t imagine having it done without anesthesia.
@@tgwallie6509 the first one I was pretty much out of it the second one was talking to the nurse and laughing and if I'm remembering right they had me on iv pain medication I don't think they do pain meds normally just for that but if you are really nervous I would think they would help ya out
@@kellymccallister7373 I mean I can ask. It doesn’t hurt to ask. I get one soon I got one order so was making sure so no complications and a easy procedure.

I watched another video from Duke UNC regarding lumbar punctures. The Dr. there always referred to the patient as a volunteer. When was this procure started? Can a Dr. do it without consent?
Don't worry, it's not as scary or as painful as it seems. I got one done 10 days ago, I was very much in my head and almost fainted so I had to reschedule, then when I went in again I was surprised at how quickly it went. There'll be a sharp feeling when the needle is inserted and I felt a weird sensation in my thigh area, hold still during this and then the needle will get through and then they'll fairly quickly get the liquid and it'll be over. Try to not be tense, relax your back and body as much as you can and it will be fine. I wish you all the best, dear stranger.
My brother also went through this, I think twice. The finding was fungal staphylococcus meningococcal meningitis. He fought for six months but lost it.
I had lumbar puncture a week ago. It was 5 tries before they hit it. The other 4 times they hit the bone before they got inbetween. It did not hurt at all! No anesthetic and it didn't hurt, just uncomfortable, extremely small needle! But, I was bedridden for 4 days because of intense pain, since they missed so often. But the procedure doesn't hurt at all. I was in a sitting position
@Pete Yes I had an endoscopy and a colonoscopy a week and two weeks before hand. The procedure of the lumbar puncture is nothing in comparison. Even tho I didn't find the endoscopy nor the colonoscopy too bad
My husband had a lumbar puncture 5 days ago after 5 failed attempts the first day and one "successful" the day afterwards (with some bleeding) and since then he has a CSF leak with severe headaches. We are now preparing for the blood patch but I am just wondering if there is a limit in the amount of tries they should be made and if increased number of trials may result in increasing the area for the leak.
To je lijepo kad ne očekujete od pacijenta da će se trznuti od bola uboda igle pretpostavljam da je pacijent lutka ili je cjela oeracija bila pod kratkotrajnom potpunom anestezijom😬😬😬😢😢🤦♂️👍❤️🍀
They do give diazepam if patient is too anxious or apprehensive,but to be honest breathing techniques and local anaesthetic is enough,you won't feel anything,all the best x
whats your question? if the doctors remain in the room they will get severely overexposed to radiation as they xrays multiple times in a single day, but since you are a patient they wont likely do it to you too much
@@hoguhq they are fully suited up. They literally put on fully body suits. I’ve had to pain doctors, both from different places. They both did the same thing. It makes it so they for sure are in the right spot.
Lumbar puncture can CAUSE a CSF leak, it’s not performed to help with one. You have to have a blood patch if you have a CSF leak and it’s a very serious condition.
Please don't do this without making sure that your are getting sedated ; otherwise is going to be a nightmare. For some weird reason a neurologist or hospital technician or whoever is going to be in charge of this procedure, is never going to ask you if you want to be sedated for this test though they know is extremely painful, so please ask to be sedated.
I just had mine three days ago, no anesthesia and no sedation I was even ticcing at the time and i couldnt stop moving so they had to reinter the needle about 3 times Its day three now and m laying flat as much as i can , it hurts when i m laying but not to the same extent as when i stand up and move , it becomes complete hell , extreme headache , back and neck pain i also cant eat cuz i puke everything i eat . I m also to blame for this as i didnt drink enough water and couldn’t drink coffee (coffee is bad for tics) Now m laying down hoping tomorrow the pain will be less

1. Encourage mobility as much as possible
2. Adults should lie on their stomachs

22 gauge is used for children and babies, adults use 20 and 18 gauge needles. Pediatric LP kits contain 22 gauge needles.

Lumbar puncture can CAUSE a CSF leak, it’s not performed to help with one. You have to have a blood patch if you have a CSF leak and it’s a very serious condition.
lumbar puncture is how i got diagnosed with autoimmune encephalitis

Anesthesia was given or without
