Myelo can cause severe spinal headaches even under the best of circumstances. Not taking the post-myelo regimen seriously will not cause a problem if you are one of the lucky ones that will simply not have a problem. However, not following instructions can make an insignificant heatache much more significant... a mild one moderate, a moderate one severe and a severe one much, much worse.

Lay down, drink fluids... after you are sure that you are not going to have a problem, then you can go to your kick boxing class. Don't sustain the higher activity levels until you are absolutely certain that you are one of the lucky ones... I don't know how many hours you should give it. Perhaps someone with more knowledge or willing to do the research can say... but I would think you should wait at least 2-3 hours before you get up and about???
