Hi I'm 39 yrs and live in Auckland NZ. I just been diagnose that I have Chiari and want that now means.
Like all the stories I have read I have suffered through headaches and tiredness for many years. I just thought I was being old and lazy and imagining things.
Now I know that's not the reason and I am looking forward with some trepidation to having decompression surgery sometime this year.
There isn't much information on Chiari in NZ and I have searched the net in my spare time to research it.
I have to say that knowing there are young children and young adults living with such severity is heart wrenching.
I am so glad there are people out there who care so much and give their time to make their dreams a reality. These people are an inspiration.
My life is really not so bad when I compare it to theirs and I am thankful for what I have and have achieved and for my family each day.

Hi there. I understand Chiari Malformation. I've just had my second surgery. The first one was four years ago. My second one was 16JULY and I had hardware removed. It's not fun being Chiarian.
I found your blog by accident, but I know now, nothing is an accident.
I wish nothing but the best for your son. It's heartbreaking when it's our children, we want to take away all pain.
Be tenacious. Be aware. Be educated.
Be loving and caring.

Be well.

Bright blessings,
Kathy

DX with Chiari & Syringomyelia in 2009, I find getting a neurosurgeon with experience is the most
important "next step" after DX
