Q: Headaches In Back of Head And Neck ...

I have really bad headaches in the back of my head and down my neck. I get really dizzy.Sometimes they even go up the sides. I have read about Chiari Malformation type I, and I think that is what i have. The symptoms are very close. I would like to tell my parents and doctors what i think, but i am afraid they will think i am being stupid or overeacting. What do u think I should do. I dont think I can handle the headaches any longer....... Sad

By all means, if you feel that there is a problem VOICE IT. Your intuition is a very powerful guide...and don't hesitate to follow up on your internal nudges. But I might recommend you be open to a number of different scenarios. Present the symptoms and ask an expert help you to diagnose them...instea of walking in with preconceived ideas.

I have had very similar symptoms since March 07. I have had 2 MRIs and I haven't been diagnosed with Chiari. You should definitely talk to someone because you could have Chiari. I still don't have a diagnosis, but I hope that you can find one.
