Pneumocephalus and seizures following epidural steroid injection.
We describe a patient with pneumocephalus following an epidural steroid injection (ESI) who presented with altered mental status, headache, focal neurologic findings and seizures. Pneumocephalus has rarely been described following ESI. A 34-year-old female presented with an altered level of consciousness worsening over approximately 18h following an ESI for lumbar back pain. She had associated headache, right-sided facial twitching and right upper extremity weakness. A brain CT scan revealed pneumocephalus in the right lateral ventricle and quadrigeminal plate cistern. While in the emergency department she experienced a self-limited generalized seizure. She was admitted and her symptoms persisted. Seven days following admission she was discharged to a rehabilitation facility, but her arm weakness persisted for greater than a month before resolving. Epidural anesthesiamilitarism, etc.
Also, on the subject of religion: It is true that some nazi's had a hard-on for Germanic paganism,partly because they saw Christianity as a religion for the weak, and partly due to their racist ideology (as a throwback to ancient Germania and it's so called "superior race"). That stuff you said about socialism on the other hand? utter, complete shite: Not many people know this, but Marx was in no way the first socialist: socialism is inspired by the typical christian value of "Caritas", or "charity" in English, as a correction on the excesses of liberal capitalism in the early 19th century. Marx later built communism on these foundations, but also christian, socialist, and liberal democrats took some inspiration from this early socialism.
TL;DR: Stop pulling **** out
