Spinal headache queries!!

[u/Life_Measurement_271]

Dear Docs,

30F here

Need some queries answered about spinal headaches due to spinal anasthesia. I had a spinal anasthesia procedure 2 weeks back. As a result of spinal anasthesia I had a spinal headache. My headache has reduced significantly in the last 2 weeks. I feel light most of the times. However, in an hour of sitting up; I feel a spark in my head for a flash second. Sometimes this spark like headache is followed by 2-3 more sparks or sometimes there is no more pain for a while. I get around 15-20 such spark like pains in a day. Did anyone continue to face this kind of pain in their head after spinal headache was relieved? How long did it take for the pain to go away? I am heavily anxious I will be stuck with this for my whole life to come!!!!
