Guest guest Posted November 14, 2000 Report Share Posted November 14, 2000 Hi all, I went to see one of my specialist doctors today for a check up. He said that my bladder problems, I.B.S., cough and arthritis in my little fingers are all linked to the chiari. He said that the nerves from the brain to other parts of my body went through a lot with the chiari surgery as well as the neck. It's been two years now and they still aren't healed right and may never be. Neck is sore today. I also have nerve damage in my left leg and lower back disc problems. I can't feel the needle used to prick the leg on the inside for feeling. He put me on detrol and also said to take alleve. These are along with my other meds. Hopefully the detrol will help. He said it should help with everything. I'm on a trial 2 wks. to see what it does. Hope this is helpful to someone else. Take care and I hope everyone is having a good day.
