Last Year I Had Cortidonr Steroid Injections And Doctor Poked

Last year I had cortidonr steroid injections and Doctor poked a hole in spinal cord and I after about 15 minutes I started vomiting and had terrible headache, Called back to Dr, and said she must have hit spinal cord and rush back to Surgical clinic and they withdrew blood from arm and performed bloofpatch, A couple months later I. Lot feel9in kegs and lost around 70 pounds, Finally was diagnosed on the downhill died of virus which showed up via spinal tap. Finally got over this issue then began having what I call blackouts or seizures which I was given epileptic medication and it is helping for the most part, My question is could leak in spinal cord cause the issues I had and continue to be medicated for? Thank you, Kirk Breakbill
