Guest guest Posted January 30, 1999 Report Share Posted January 30, 1999 Dear , Yes, I have vision problems along with the pounding headache in the morning. I don't know if it is double vision, it's just blurrred vision in the morning. It goes away usually by the time I've finished my coffee (hmm?). Sheila " C.J.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 1999 Report Share Posted January 31, 1999 , My husband has had double vision all of his life!! Also, a lazy eye. After reading the list of chiari-related symptoms, I guess those could be some of his earliest signs. Since he has always been that way, he adapted to it and it has never caused him any problems. I imagine it must be quite an adjustment for you, tho!! Hope this passes!

Guest guest Posted January 31, 1999 Report Share Posted January 31, 1999 Well -- have fully check out the meds situation and nothing has changed with them for a long time, so that can be ruled out. Last full exam was 9 months ago with an optho but am going to schedule another appointment just to make sure everything is OK from " his end!

Guest guest Posted February 1, 1999 Report Share Posted February 1, 1999 I am not on line all weekend, so it takes time to catch up on all the posts. Double vision was the first " symptom " that eventually got me to the right doctor and the chiari diagnoisis. I take baclofen for it-an anti-spasmatic med. It helps slow down the eye movements of nsytagmis which is a common chiari thing. C.J. Lawrence wrote: > > Does anyone else have trouble with double vision and severe head and neck > pain?
