See your doc: CSF leak should,have been fixed vutmthus fluid needs to be checked to,determine if it is CSF vs a,sinus drainage. Both can be fixed, but the CSF leak is,potentially dangerous. Get this evaluated very soon.

I recently developed Arachnoiditis from a blood patch (clumped nerves L5-S1). About three weeks ago I notice a small amount of CSF leak in right nostril during the night. Fluid would come out the left side, off and on for years until a craniotomy in 2009.
