Illness

The Matinee continues to be on hiatus as I treat a medical condition. Many thanks to Verne Windham for picking 'encore' episodes to air. As soon as I can I will produce more episodes.

What have I got? It seems to be a brain/spinal-fluid leak, causing a constant headache whenever I'm in an upright position. Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is more common than you might think, but seems to be under-diagnosed. I'm grateful to my friend and former vocal coach, Scarlett, for letting me know about her experience with it, I think that sent my doctors down the right path in treating this.
