Hello, my name is David and I went through surgery on Jan the 21st to relieve pressure on the cerebellum.....the doctors call it Chairi malformation decompression. I know that the symptoms I had before wasn't going to clear up with this surgery, but I can't tell the new from the old....numbness, dizzy and lightheaded, weird headaches, ext. Can someone who went through this surgery help me before I make a complete idiot by going to the hospital, or calling the doctor for my complaints.
Thanks
