Do keep us posted on how things go.
In the meantime, try to rest a bit more and save up energy for things and times u know u will need it.....chiari robs us of energy that we need to pick and choose what we do......
I pray u can keep the symptoms at bay.

hi selma...yes i know i am really fortunate for having gone as long as i have doing as well as i have...i have not had an mri in the past 12 months, but will do so soon, given the recurrence of some of my symptoms--my surgeon actualy patched the area covering the skull removal with heart muscle tissue from a cadaver...the last mri i had showed some scar tissue but i really do not know at this point if it has led to the issues i'm experiencing now.
Hi and welcome to the Chiari forum.
It is very possible that u have some symptoms return, and I am amazed as to how long u went feeling well!!
The one issue causing some return of symptoms could be scar tissue....
When did u have ur last MRI to check the surgical site?
The florescent lights for me has not gone away, it was much worse pre op then post op, but it is a major issue for me too,
May I ask did u have a dura patch, if so what type?
