Had my LP today. It was actually fine and not painful at all! I only had a visual EP. It was normal. I did find something else today. An MRI of my arm showed a BUNCH of torn ligaments so that at least explains the pain but not the numbness...DOc says location of my lesions dont make sense with the right arm. Also sending me to a hand surgeon for ligaments... If LP is normal, he said we wil have another MRI of brain in a few months to se if lesions may have grown.
