Okay, I Have Never Posted Any Thing, Dont Know If This Will Work But Here Goes. I Can Only Hope A Neurologist Reads It. My Son 19 Had Surgery 1 Year Ago For Chiari Malformation And Syringomyelia. It Looked Like The Surgery Went Great. But He Had Another Mri And His Brain Stem Has A Kink In It And It Did Not Have One Before The Surgery. The Surgeon Said It Is Not A Problem, But I Am Worried That It Is, Maybe He Did Not Want To Scare Me?? Does Any One Out There Know Anything About This Sort Of Occurrance After A Chiari Surgery?? I can be contacted via this forum. I Just Got This Sick Feeling That I Thought I Woulf Go On Line And See If Any One Had Any Answers. Instead Of The Stem Of His Brain Having A Smoothe Slope It Has A Kink Now. Thanks For Listening Patty!
