Anyone that got both a standing/sitting mri and a laying down mri, what was the difference if any, in how much your cerebellum descends into the spinal column? The reason I ask is my symptoms reseed when I lay down, but are still their and if I sit up or stand the symptoms get worse, like my headache/migraine will be a 1-4 out of 10 pain when laying down yet if I sit up even just in bed it will go up to 6-8 out of a 10 pain and also things like foggy brain gets way better laying down. So would me getting a sitting up mri help me & my doctors in understanding what treatment to take.
P.S. I can post screenshot of my mri pic if anyone wants.
Interested in hearing any replies to your questions. My daughter’s symptoms seem about the same regardless of position, with the exception of difficulty breathing. When she has an “episode” where she has trouble breathing, sitting up is always better. She also prefers to stand after sitting for any length of time to help relieve her back pain.
saw a neurosurgeon recently and she said since my CSF Flow was normal except some high pressure behind the eyes she believe it is actually pseudo-tumor witch is making the MRI have the signs of Chiari. Also, she wants me to get another eye exam for pressure check witch they did right before I got my first MRI and they said was normal because I thought it was pseudo-tumor also before the first MRI and my first Neurologist told me he thought it was Chiari what should I do after this, should I continue down the chiari path or just consider that it is pseudo-tumor
