First time posting here. I've spent many hours in the past 4 years on a Guillain-Barre site. Was diagnosed in 2004. Since Oct. 08 I was introduced to a new site for Chiari 1 Malformation. Seems I've been dealt a double whammy. Two rather unusual and somewhat rare nerve related disorders.
My mother has Parkinson's and my sister was diagnosed with MS over 40 years ago. So I'm thinking there is a definite predisposition for neurological disorders in the family. Hope it isn't one of the traits I passed on to my adult children.
Am still recuperating from brain surgery to slow the progression of Chiari.
Looking forward to connecting with those who understand.
