Hi there,
My surgery is in 5 weeks. I quit nicotine yesterday (learned on Weds I would need the operation next month.) I had a lot of nicotine gum daily the past few years and I’m worried it will affect my surgery/recovery even if I stop now. Any one have experience with this/information?
Hi there! Does anyone have experiences with Dr. Buchanan in Denver? How did it go?
Hi there, I’m brand new to learning about Chiari. I’m at 17mm and I feel like I have flairs where the back of my head hurts and I have trouble swallowing. It comes and goes. Is this common or are your symptoms more consistent day to day? Thanks for your patience. I’m new to a few health conditions I’m figuring out
Does anyone have any links to articles about eye pain and swallowing issues contributed to by Chiari?
Do you all have experience with SIBO? I have it and my doctor says it’s linked to my hypermobility, which I’ve heard could be connected to my POTS and CPTSD. All conditions have been diagnosed. Wondering if you all have a similar overlap. And any tips for SIBO would be wonderful 😊
I have cptsd from child abuse and from a long term DV relationship. I’m not sure if it was actually assault. My exboyfriend would push me down and force me to engage in sexual acts and he wouldn’t agree to a month without engaging in it when I begged. He would make me throw up and and make me keep going. It doesn’t feel significant enough to be SA though
