OCsunshine Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 I don't quite have the chiari malformation, but am borderline... so they call it "cervical stenosis" for me.I have a friend (met on a list-serv, she lives in PA) who has the chiari malformation, though. She had brain surgery to correct it (Dr Weingert at Hopkins did her surgery). So I am familiar with her experiences, and have had similar problems b/c of the narrowing of my spine in that area.
