Let’s all give a warm welcome to Nicole from Texas!
Nicole was recently diagnosed with Chiari Malformation and is waiting to see a specialist.
In interacting with many members on this forum, I have come to understand that diagnosis is often both good and bad. It’s good in that you finally are able to understand why you have been experiencing the symptoms you have been having - in this way, you find comfort. Simultaneously, you must also come to terms with that fact that you have this condition.
Nicole, I want you to approach this community as your own - please get involved in the discussion, ask questions and don’t hesitate to comment on other threads. This place is here for you and I guarantee that you will find it comforting and beneficial.
Once again, welcome to Ben’s Friends Nicole.
