A member asked:
Diagnosed with tia/basilar migraine last night. both cat scans normal. history of severe chiari malformation. further testing warranted?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Symptomatic Chiari: It would be worth having a neurosurgeon evaluate you & review your current MRI. If you have no current MRI, the neurosurgeon will order one & any other needed studies.
