Just diagnosed

Hello. I am new here and I live around Austin, TX. I just found out a week ago from today that I had a Chiari I Malformation and then everything I've been experiencing makes sense. I have so many questions and so little concentration.

I've been having a hard time finding care in this area. Can anyone recommend someone around this area. I'd be willing to go to San Antonio and Houston as well.

Do you all find that your symptoms get worse after MRIs? Is this progressive?

Any information would be appreciated.

Hi there Cooksie, check out our Doctors List for Chiari physicians in Texas http://doctors.bensfriends.org/doctors/physicians/19/

Also, if you go in to the members tab and use the advanced search facility you can look up other members in your city/state to connect with them and see which doctors they see.
