Being diagnosed with any medical condition can be confusing and overwhelming.  Chiari and syringomyelia, in particular, bring a host of new terminology, tests, and procedures.

The presentation below is intended to be a quick, general overview of the conditions and a starting point for understanding.  The information is presented in bullet point format and is not in-depth or comprehensive.  Though intended for newly diagnosed patients, existing patients may find it interesting.  As always this information is not intended as medical advice. 

After viewing the presentation, please take a moment to return to this page and let us know what you thought.
