Guest guest Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 ....Wanted to say " Hi all " . I was recently diagnosed with Chiari I, after almost a year of complaining of severe headaches (at 46 yrs old). I already have a plethora of info - and lots of questions for you guys. So I think I'll lurk around long enough to read posts - kinda' get the feel of the place - then I can bombard you all with what will probably amount to mostly stupid questions. In the meantime, I'm happy to share my experience, thus far, with you all... Nice to be here, Corey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 For 32 years I just simply told people that the big scar on my neck was there because I had brain surgery at age 17 (1974) then in 2006 I got a name for it Chiari. I began getting on the computer after a friend brought some info. on Chiari which led me to this Great Group of people.There is no stupid questions Chiari is a complex problem but there are many people who understand don't hesitate to ask anything. HAVE A GOOD DAY WELCOME TO THE GROUP (Indiana) Chiari Surgery 1974 (age 17) : My NS considered it a Chiari II;I have always considered it was a Success.I knew little to nothing about Chiari until May of 2006 Subject: Just found my way over here...
