I was just diagnosed with CM Type I, yesterday. I know that there are a lot of steps that my physician wants me to take such as, meet with my neurologist and with a neurosurgeon. I'm the type of person that doesn't even like taking asprin. I like to go with the least invasive way of dealing with things and progressively get more invasive if necessary. I'm having symptoms such as fainting spells, anxiety, trouble hearing in my left ear, dizziness, fatigue, having trouble finding the correct words, and my balance and coordination are off. My symptoms have already started to affect my quality of life.To the best of my understanding, this is not life threatening and the surgery just provides relief from the symptoms. If I am wrong about any of this please feel free to interject.
Anywho, this is just a long set up to ask, has anyone had luck with holistic treatments to manage their symptoms? All I keep seeing is about surgery and I just keep thinking that there has to be something out there to help me with out being that drastic.
