Hi and welcome to the Chiari forum.

A prayer thread will be posted for you....May I ask how you came to have testing if you didn't have many symptoms?

And did they rule out ALL related conditions?

Wishing you all the best <3

Hi, I'm new to the community. I was diagnosed with Arnold Chiari malformation Type 1 on Dec. 29, 2015. On Jan. 25, 2016, I found out I had a large syrinx. By Gods grace, I don't have many symptoms- I get horrible headaches and my left arm goes numb from time to time. My cousin, who is a neurologist, said that looking at my MRI and seeing me in person, it's like two different people. So after, three different opnions, I am having decompression surgery, on Feb. 18th, 2016. I'm nervous, I've never had surgery before. All prayers welcomed. Thank you for listening.

Best of luck to you. Hope all goes well. I had my surgery 14 years ago and it has incredibly improved my quality of life

Many prayer's sent for you now , during & after your surgery. Keep focusing on the "this time next week" you'll have the surgery at least behind you ....this time next week, you'll be further away from the surgery than you are closer to it right now! This WILL be a positive thing & our thoughts & prayers are with you!!!
