heart problems with chiari

[neava]

hi everyone,

ive been having heart problems recently, the beat is slow then speeds up, my blood pressure ends up being 204/110, went to hospital, was sent home,
now awaiting a 24hr heart moniter, i get so lightheaded, and weak, heavy, if i take a step of stand, or even roll over in bed, it becomes hard to breath,
I have had this alot, but had never had a BP, or heart listened to while it happened, i dont normally go to doc, but i felt so bad, i decided i should go, which i found interesting as it maked me wonder if this happens every time,

my question is....... Do you get heart and Blood pressure problems with chiari and if there is anything that can help this effect, of relieve it????????
at the moment i seem to have problems one after another. lol

You're welcome! All I've ever had is a plain MRI. My next NS visit I'm asking him for more. Last night i was at an aunt's house and i mentioned that if i dont get the help i need from a specialist here i have a friend in chicago who says i can stay w/her and she can  help me out. My aunt said " AND YOU'RE GOING TO CHICAGO?!! JAJAJAJAJA" yea that went great lol. I'm used to it. Thanks for giving us a little more info Selma =-)

No worries : )

I know the drs really should explain what is  going on...the members here explained a CINE to me b4 I had mine, so I knew what to expect.....

thanks for explaining that, about the BP, whoo i never knew that, im so exiting that it been explained, lol

HI...oh I totally get the family thing...I had a drop attack in front of my mom, I wasn't taken to the drs for it either....but when I went myself, they gave me prozac....so, we thinks drs give us the run around now...

LOL...I always said my were like ostrich's....lol... buried their heads in the sand...so really similar....

When u had ur CINE MRI the clip is added during the second half of the testing and is used to monitor ur BP...if the CSF moves in rhythm with ur BP (blood Pressure) then u most likely have a blockage.

I hope that helps u understand it a bit more : )

i all

thanks selma and gmaldonado for your  support, i love coming on here, and knowing that im not the only one who has problems or feels that way, even though i would perfer if none of us were here at all,

with my family everything gets put under the rug, when i was a kid there were i few things that i did, which now dont make since and why my parents never took me to get checked, but oh well, i guess they didnt think, the good thing that has come out of my family showing their true colours is that, i now know how not to treat my own kids, so i must thank them for that, no seriously, if in anyway it helps me be a better parent, than yeh i thank them,, still ***** for me lol

when i had  an MRI and they wanted to check my fluid i had a moniter put on my finger, (i dont know how that checks it) but thats what they told me. seems dumb now that i think of it, sorry you werent feeling very well after MRI, i hope you are doing beta now.


i went away last night without the children, it was just me and husbsnd it was great, but today i have muscule weakness, i hate that when you go away or do anything you pay for it later, but atleast i am relaxed, just picked the kids up, that was sad, i dont get breaks very often maybe once a year, but its good to be home, now i can get over the travel.

thanks again everyone for your support, you are my second family
