Guest guest Posted March 14, 2000 Report Share Posted March 14, 2000 ok here are all of my symptoms (at least those that come to my mind right now). Do they look like Chiari`s to YOU? * migraines (ever since I was 12) * New kind of headache (This type of headache is different than my regular migraines)- like pressure in the back of my head and/or located behind my eye and it so bad I feel my eye is going to pop out. (no med I`ve tried helps get rid of it) * can`t stand loud noise, bright lights, hot water * when moving head backwards- dizziness much worse, seeing lights+spots, blurred vision worse* plugged ears and pressure in them (like you drive up mountain or go underwater) * hearing high pitched noise that no one hears* loss of strength, some of sensation in left arm which gets also numb onand off * tingling in arms and legs on and off* constant pain in left arm+hand* constant dizziness with nausea - severity changes * feeling of itchiness- like a bug is walking on my body* balance problems* short term memory loss (could also be from Epilepsy) and difficulty in finding words* problems with bladder control (leaking) * bad headache when sneezing/coughing * neck pain that radiates to shoulders and sometimes arms, elbows and down to the fingers * neck often pops when I move head from side to side- feel relief of pain for very short time* blurred vision on and off* seeing weird lights and colors, spots and such* short of breath when I feel my head from inside is on fire* palpitations on and off * burning sensation in my arms, hands, face, head, legs sometimes* foggy brain (can be from epilepsy too) and difficulty in concentration* low back pain that radiates to left leg usually, sometimes mid back pain that radiates to right leg. * knees pain if temperature changes, after walking/standing/sitting for long. still hurts even when lying down, knees crack and pop when standing, walking, sitting down when I told my neurologist about those symptoms he insisted they don`t sound Chiari symptoms to him (well he said -maybe a few do)... I just don`t understand anymore. Michal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
