Oh Tracy Im so sorry. How very scary. Make sure you get another opinion or two. I saw someone say its a malformation of the skull. I googled it... this is what I found.
What are Chiari malformations?
Chiari malformations (CMs) are structural defects in the cerebellum, the part of the brain that controls balance. Normally the cerebellum and parts of the brain stem sit in an indented space at the lower rear of the skull, above the foramen magnum (a funnel-like opening to the spinal canal). When part of the cerebellum is located below the foramen magnum, it is called a Chiari malformation. |
