Hello everyone. I am wondering if anyone who has been decompressed can tell me how long I can expect to feel light headed/dizzy. It seems to be affecting my eyes too. It's not spells, but a fairly constant feeling. Its been nearly 4 weeks since my surgery and I don't notice any relief yet. Is this normal? Any input would be appreciated! Thank you!!
Hi Melissa,
well ..at least you you have done the most important task for chiari..decompressed...each individual are different..but you should feel the difference between 4-8 weeks..I was horrified after surgery, my pressured gone, but the excruciating pain carried on for over 7 weeks, then on the 8th weeks i have got better and better - then now I am pain and drug free got my Quality Life back...
