Message:   Oh thank you for your reply. I was so hopeful this morning, but the day went on and I was very sore and tight and would still get a mild headache (nothing like the previous days). In your experience, how long is the average recovery time with just pushing fluids and bed rest? I am really nervous about the blood patch and further side effects. I just wonder if it's normal to take 5 days or more and why it takes so long for such a tiny hole to heal. Each day is getting better though, it really is.
