Does a spinal stroke hurt more than getting an epidural?

I'm scheduled for a spinal tap, and I'm wondering how much it hurts. I had an epidural 2 years ago, and that be no big deal. Just experienced a ton of pressure. I'm just wondering if it's worse, better, anything?

Thanks!

Answers:    In order to bring back an epidural, your spine needs to be tapped. So my answer to you question is that it would be duplicate. The only difference being why you had the epidural. If it be for labour then the tap might enjoy been in your spine longer than a spinal tap requires to be. Another difference between the two is that a spinal hit is usually to take a sample of spinal fluid or to relieve fluid from the spine whereas an epidural is to administer a pain murderer for operations below the chest area or for labour stomach-ache during delivery.
