Guest guest Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 My 8 year old son fell last year and had a grake 2 concussion with amnesia for 3 hours and couldn't see for a minute after. He only hit his cheek. Not even a bruise. Since then he has had headaches neck pain heavy arms and legs where he won't even walk up the stairs and dizzy spells. Last week he went sledding and after going down the hill he went pale and threw up. He gets headaches from the cold. Says the cold air pushes against his head. 3 ct scans were negative. I have an appointment next Friday. I'm going to mention chiari to his dr. is mri the appropriate step to rule it out? How do they do that on an 8 year old do they sedate them? I'm scared to have 2 of us to fight for. HH --------------------------------- Never miss a thing. Make Yahoo your homepage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
