So glad that some of you all have had good fortune to find good neuro-surgeons. I had Chiari surgery done in June of 2000. I've posted about the road there, and a little about the experiance after. I can remember what its like waiting for that surgery date *shivers*. The biggest piece of advice I can offer, is to make sure you have a good strong support system in place, especially for the first few weeks post op. That recommendation isnt just for the patients, but for spouses and those all important kiddos as well.

Even a successful Chiari result is stressful for the first month, especially.

God Bless you all!!!

Group Hug!!!!
