    I had this exact operation in 2004 after being rear-ended by a car in 2003. I was in agony for months (seriously thought I had broken bones but all xrays were clean) with no explanation when finally my doctors ordered an MRI and sent it to a neurosurgeon. He confirmed I had Chiari malformation and needed surgery ASAP. It definitely put my life on hold for a bit of time. About two years ago all the lingering nerve pain, etc finally went away and I feel as though I'm getting my life back.

    Great job getting through it! It sucks, but then you realize its your life to live. Great inspiration, thank you!
