Chiari Decompression Success Stories (preferably long term)
Post Body

I see a lot of people talking about the horrors of their choice to get surgery. I was wondering if anyone has some life changing success stories they could share and long term healing and normalcy? I’d really like to believe there is hope to get back to a relatively normal life. Please also share if you have any tips for a successful surgery.

My doctor is basically telling me if I don’t have headaches he can’t help me because all he thinks the surgery can do is relieve headaches. I have a myriad of symptoms that change day to day like: low heart rate, slight muscle weakness, tremors in hands, twitching, lightheadedness, chest pain, joint pain, tingling in legs and feet, neck pain, feeling anxious and out of body, and I even had pain in my mouth and teeth one random time.

I just need to hear that most of this can go away and stay away if I do find someone who thinks I’m worthy of surgery. I do not want to be completely crippled before someone takes me seriously because by then it could be unrepairable.

Thanks.
