Guest guest Posted January 1, 2001 Report Share Posted January 1, 2001 Hi everyone. A question. I just got back from a beautiful, relaxing, incredible 4 days in Northern Calif. My head felt great there (NO pressure!) but some other symptoms seemed to progressively get worse. My calves spasmed terribly, especially towards the end, and on the drive home (4 hours) my hands and forearms started tingling and became numb. It feels just like someone is holding onto my wrists as tight as they can and cutting off my circulation. I knew that I was coming home to some terrible stressful situations and couldn't stop thinking about it. My question is, could the stress really exascerbate the chiari this much or was it the change of locations? I'm seriously considering moving up there and am so hoping it's just the stress. Has anyone experienced this? Thanks in advance! Much love, Traci, ACM1, no surgery, hypothyroidism mom of Andre (15 yrs.), ACM1, cyst on brainstem, scoliosis, surgery soon _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
