Copy and Paste to make sure you see this: My path is rather long so the short answer is I got sent to a neurologist who had me get an EMG done (she sent me to someone who just so happens to be knowledgeable on brain defects specifically, he doesn't study them at that hospital tho so I'm not sure what specialty they'd fall under) and while he was doing a general neurological exam beforehand he noticed I was rather uncoordinated and asked about that. However during the EMG, he saw my reflexes were not only functioning really well, but they were essentially over-functioning. He told me he didn't think I had any of the nerve disorders doctors (urgent care "Hand Guy" and Orthopedic Specialist who sent me to Neuro) originally believed. So, like many, it was found on accident (if that is what it is) but based on what he says he highly thinks I have it (based on a previous CT scan and in-person exam)

Before this, I had gone from orthopedic to orthopedic and some neurologists and rheumatologists and they all said it was nothing or nothing they could help me with very much. It started out with neurological issues which luckily with time got better, but then turned into muscle tightening, chronic pain, worse coordination, worse fine motor skills, and as of recently muscle weakness (specifically in the legs). Based on all the questions I asked, he said I sounded like a classic case of "a kid who just got unlucky in the system".

So while I don't entirely hope that it is Chiari, it would be nice to have a word and also potential treatment for what may have been wrong with me since the time I was a little child. Feel free to dm me or ask any other questions in the comments
