PAIN FOLLOWING OEC TRANSPLANT

Ihave been following the guys in Beijing presently and it appears that vent patients, following there OEC transplants has suffered a great deal of pain in their heads and also are experiencing infection in their systems. Dr. Huang is extremely careful and is taking all the necessay precautions for these guys. I understand they are being very closely monitor by physicians at all times. So they are in very good hands. Whats happening?

merco,

I explained in another post. Headaches are common after surgery that drain the cerebrospinal fluid. This happens often after spinal surgery that involve the opening of the dura. It does away after several days when the cerebrospinal fluid volume is restored.
