Would a chiari malformation show up on a brain mri?had 3 mris in the past 2 yrs and they haven't seen one but lots of pain and pressure nape of neck

Evaluate neck: Do NOT understand repetitive focus on Chiari malformation, even with history of connective tissue disorder. However, appears you do NOT have it. See a good osteopathic or rehab doctor, and uncover pain generator in neck, and treat underlying problem. Many co-morbidities can be associated with Ehlers-Danlos.
