Need support- have

This is the short version, if u need more info- please read my profile. I am 22 yrs old and over 6 weeks post-op LAP RNY. After almost 4 months of constantly suffering from debilitating, horribly painful migraines that controlled my life everyday. I had an MRI, tons of blood tests, and had a spinal tap last week, then sent to the ER, then had a blood patch on Monday. I now have <b>"Chronic Daily Headaches"</b> I guess that's the term, that is the only one he gave me. Any one else suffer from this? As well as very <b>severe muscle spasms</b> ANyway, b/c of this, i have been bedridden for over a week now, i cannot sit-up or walk for long periods of time, although I try. My vision is blurry and am light sensitive. (I see chiropractors, neurologists and the hospital frequently) I am only able to get about 40grams to 50grams of protein in a day. I know this sounds obsessive, but is this okay? I get in plenty of fluids, like 80-100 or more, b/c i HAVE to b/c of my spinal problems and migraines. I just don't want to have come so far and lost 40 pounds and start all over. THANKS SO MUCH :-)
