A neurosurgeon would be the best physician
to consult with.

You did'nt say how you know you have
chiari - anyway, I do. I went to a neuro.
And had an angiogram. Basically since I
am showing no systems, everything is on
hold. I have'nt noticed anything and its
been 6 years that I know of that I had it.
Most people are born with it and it just
stays stagnant - meaning it will never do
anything. Don't worry but I would go to
the specialists so they can see. Its
more common than you would think. I do
know of 1 person who had to have the full
blown operation - but we won't get into
that until you know how yours is.
