I was diagnosed with both Chiari Malformation and Syringomyelia back in August 2015. Had surgery in September 2015. My surgery was successful. It accomplished what it was meant to do by stopping the progression. I do have issues with my hand, but had EIP Opponensplasty last summer to improve the usage of my hand. I continue to be monitored by a neurologist yearly. As of my last MRI this past spring, everything continues to look good.

I have the problems as you ! I have Chiari and a cyst on my spinal cord they are hoping the surgery will make my spinal fluid will move after surgery and fix the cyst! But I'm scared to death to have surgery! How lo g did it take to heal after surgery? And did it fix yr nerve pain?
