When I visited ns 3monthes ago, mri was done at my whole spine and brain. Ns said 5ns'es diagnosis is that i

have chiari malformation so i need decompressure surgery next week. So i decided to do and entered the

hospotal. But next day when i woke up in the morning, doctors came to me and said Radiologists reject the

operation because my barin's hernation degree is possible for nomal brain. so i have had other examinations

for other potatial deseases. Emg, blood test and Knee mri is normal. But ssep have abnormal sign. There is

electrophysiologic evidence of central conduction defect in the right ptsep. My symptoms are getting worse..

Hi and welcome to the Chiari  forum.

I would suggest if you can,  locate a true Chiari specialist to review your MRI's and other testing you have had and the symptoms you are dealing with.
