A member asked:
Had spinal tap which resulted in a spinal headache. headache has gone and i'm able to walk/stand for long periods. am i safe for alcohol consumption?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Should be OK: To be completely safe, get in touch with the doctor who did the LP. The main concern might be whatever medical problem made the tap necessary. From the standpoing of the post-LP headache, moderate alcohol shouldn't be a problem. But don't tank up in a big way!
