Symptoms of post dural puncture headache

Hi, i had an LP done last Monday to rule out Viral Meningitis. The test was negative however i have had a severe headache ever since that is worse when i stand upright and is only relieved when i lay flat. I hear a blood patch can help in these situations, is this true. Can i have it at any point or is it only feasible up to one week after the LP??
