Dizziness, tingling in the spine.

Within the last four years I've started developing problems along the lines of dizzy spells and actual blackouts, however I have only experienced several blackouts.

When I go from laying or sitting down and I stand up it's usually accompanied by dizziness or sudden pain in my head. I've gotten used to it now and it's never been intensely serious, but it's still concerning.

I've also always experienced an odd tingling sensation running up my spine in my neck area. It's as though I can hear electricity running through my spine. And I've had my friends put their ears by my neck and listen and they've heard it as well.

Another problem would be that I can sleep 8-12 hours in a night and still be exhausted when I wake up. I find myself to be increasingly lethargic at times.

It hasn't gotten to the point where the symptoms I've been having are at all disrupting my life, but I definitely don't feel that they're at all normal for a healthy person.

I was wondering if maybe this could have anything to do with a Chiari one malformation?

I agree that you should have this checked out. I don't know about the tingling, but the dizzy spells could be associated with an inner ear problem or vertigo.
