 After many years of her own research, Karen suspected her diagnosis to be a spinal CSF leak so she sought treatment from the best physicians in the field. In the end, Karen took her own life when the treatments did not stop her pain; it is my belief that [[http://kpaddock.com/doku.php/resources/fluoroquinolones|fluoroquinolone antibiotics]] (Cipro, Levaquin and 20 other names) and steroid use complicated her treatments. After many years of her own research, Karen suspected her diagnosis to be a spinal CSF leak so she sought treatment from the best physicians in the field.

 Sometimes we choose our mission in life, other times it chooses us.  I have become very active in the medical community in raising awareness of Intracranial Hypotension due to Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Leaks. A condition that is more common that many think (for example Actor [[http://kpaddock.com/doku.php/blog/bpaddock/george_clooney_has_a_csf_leak|George Clooney had/has a CSF Leak]] and considered suicide), yet is so unknown that some doctors argue the condition does not even exist. Sometimes we choose our mission in life, other times it chooses us.  I have become very active in the medical community in raising awareness of Intracranial Hypotension due to Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Leaks.
