Mike was admitted to St. Joe/Barrow Neurological Institute today. We will know more tomorrow.
Please keep us posted on what the Drs say as that seems to be the best step for now...especially since he is not on meds that could be the root of this....
There is no way to compare what is going on with him with ne one else either as we all are different and our body will react/respond just as differently....
Good Luck at Barrows.
Hi Lisa! I can pm you because I don't think this site allows me to post the links here.

I'm in Buckeye and sure could use some support. Have Chiari, and need the surgery. You have had it? If so ease share your experience with me... Lisa
Hi! I had no idea that you moved to Az. I am in Queen Creek and have a pretty good support group here. If you need anything or any info, please let me know. If I cant answer or provide the info you need, I'll ask around for it! So very sorry that this is all going on. I know the stress from a move tends to do a number on us. Please let me know if I can be of ANY help!

Ha! Thanks Lisa. I work in the medical field so that's probably where it comes from.
The problem is you don't know what's going on.... In light of the rapid neurological deterioration he should be seen ASAP. You give a GREAT medical history by the way. In this instance you are far better off on the safe side. I would take him to Barrows and request Dr Zabramski. PM me if you need anything.... Lisa
No - he's not on any meds other than his Allopurinol (gout) and Metoprolol (tachycardia). Same meds he's been on for a year.
Hi and welcome back !! So sorry ur DH is having issues at this point post op.
I do feel this is familiar but not with decompression surgery or chiari....I have to ask does he take ne meds? Nething to help him sleep?
I ask this as my father has this reaction with his meds to help him sleep, he is very disoriented and many times does not recall, and some times he does...ur description sounds so much like him .....so even if it is not a sleep med,. do look at ne meds he may be on,.
Other then the meds as a possibility has he been doing nething different?
