A member asked:
How long will i have to stay under observation after lumbar puncture if i've had cvst and my warfarin is temporarily stopped?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
18-24 hours: As long as there were no complications from the LP and there is no evidence of increased intracranial pressure, then close observation should not be required and anti-coagulation should be re-instituted.
