Hey guys I'm in desperate need for advice seems like I've seen doctor after doctor and I still have no answers. I've been suffering with bad bad headache and then they turn into a migraine for over a year that seem to be getting worse and the still don't know why. My headaches are most of the time at the base of my skull where it hurts so bad I will sit and press as hard as I can on the back of my neck to help relive the pain. I also have weakness running down my left arm off and on, almost like an icy hot feeling. They have done multiple X-rays only finding some sinus blockage so I went to a Ent only for him o tell me that that was not the cause of my headache. So then I went in for a cervical spine Mri and its showed that I have a syrinxs between c3 to c6 I belive with no sings of a chiari malformation. So they then sent me to a neroligest who told me it was probably just a fluck find and I'm just a suffer of migraines and put me on a handful of me to try all in which do not work. I've been seen now by over 5 different doctors all who don't have any answers or any help. But reading the symptoms of a chiari malformation goes hand in hand with what I'm going through. The headache the nausea the arm weakness then gag reflexes.
Do you guys think it's possiable that they misses the chiari malformation on the cervical spine Mri when they found the syrinxs or could my symptoms be cause from the syrinxs? No doctor seems to know much about it so they just skip over it and go to something else. Should I reqest a brain Mri?
