I have had headaches, neck pain, numbness, extreme sensitivity to sound, and unrelieved pressure/tension
in my neck and lower skull since I was
in high school. However, I recently developed some new symptoms, including eye pain, ear pain, numbness and tingling in my face, upper back, shoulders, and arms.
I recently had a brain MRI and cervical MRI and discovered the chiari, and my neuro essentially said that it was no big deal and that I was probably born with it - and that's it.
