Health 10 days post epidural lumbar puncture. Suspecting spinal csf leak. Difficulty with walking and balance. Suggest neurologist or neurosurgeons?

please suggest neurosurgeons, neurologists or interventional radiologists that deal with csf leaks from an epidural lumbar puncture? I have balance issues and extreme vertigo, photophobia, blurry vision, low pressure headache above my eyes. Please don’t recommend ather javed or dr ekram. I’ve been seeing Dr Javad kirmani at imc and he overcomplicated my case by over treating me.

You might be having an infection.
Get seen by someone urgently

Try Dr Qamar Gul at Diip House Lahore. He's one of the best neurologists out there, and very different from the usual neurology clinics.

His pa is so obnoxious. I did try to get an appointment with him but was met with confusion and disdain from his pa. She doesn’t how to talk to patients. Refers to them as “clients” yikes

His clinic is v far so I tried to book him for an online consultation and right before the consultation I was told he prefers if I show up in person(no problem with that) but I could’ve been informed earlier before they took the payment upfront. How unprofessional. I’m sure he’s a great doctor idk but needs to change his pa.

If there is a way to reach out to him in person I’d love to pay him a visit

I'll drop your feedback on his WhatsApp, have it saved from my last year's consultation with him. As far as I know, he's not practicing anywhere else. Will update you here if I get a reply
