Hello everyone, I am 4 months post op. I was diagnosed back in April. My cerebellum was measuring at 15mm which prompted my dr to suggest surgery (which is my 5th neurologist I’ve seen). I have tried every migraine medication but still seem to have symptoms still.

Currently I am suffering with anxiety and depression (is this normal???) My surgeon said that everything is healing perfect, but I still feel like the back of my head needs to be protected. I feel like I can’t talk to anyone about my condition because they just don’t get it. They think it’s just a bad headache or I’m crazy or something. Does anyone else feels like this?
