It took three tries for them to place my epidural. My doctor/the hospital would only do a spinal blood patch after a certain number of days (I think it was 7?). But my doctor told me that caffeine would help, as would staying as flat as possible. Thankfully on the evening of day 6 it started getting dramatically better and was basically gone the next morning. I would definitely suggest calling your doctor though. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/migraine-from-epidural#post-2724316 Fri, 14 Apr 2017 10:14:24 +0000 MOMTOLITTLEB 2724316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sister had this and she did go back to the hospital. Her blood pressure had spiked really high and the headaches were terrible. You should probably call your doctor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/migraine-from-epidural#post-2724282 Fri, 14 Apr 2017 09:28:59 +0000 ocean81 2724282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sister had this, but the headaches were so bad she couldn't open her eyes. She had to go back to the hospital for a spinal blood patch. Did they mess up your epidural or have to do it more than once? I would call your doc. I'm so sorry you are dealing with this, I saw how much pain she was in :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/migraine-from-epidural#post-2724158 Thu, 13 Apr 2017 22:03:03 +0000 skipra 2724158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="https://patient.info/health/headache-after-an-epidural-or-spinal-anaesthetic" rel="nofollow">https://patient.info/health/headache-after-an-epidural-or-spinal-anaesthetic</a></p> <p>My sister had one once and she had to just lay flat.

Has anyone else had this? When did it subside? Did you have to go back to the hospital? What did they do? </p>
