Lumbar puncture at Hospital

Okay, Mom and I walked in for a lumbar puncture test on Monday, Figured it would be about an hour.... ended up laughing at each other because it was a 7-hour test!
After getting "hydrated" on the IV, there was the TEST and then we had to wait 4 hours while they oberserved me and had me eat dinner. We had to laugh at each other because we weren't sure what else to do! Then I had to spend yesterday all day in bed observing the rules ...... so amazing! No chemo - I'll find out about that today at my doctor appointment.

So next time, find out what's involved with your tests BEFORE HAND!!!!!
