I've had tingling come and going for a while now and I know that is caused by my chiari. But here lately I've been having a feeling of burning mostly in my neck but I get it further down in my spine. I was just wondering if anyone else has ever experienced this?

" I have not experienced this. But while doing some research. When they found your Chiari did they look in you lower spine to make sure the Chiari had not caused bubbles in the spinal fluid? If you have this, this can cause the buring feeling. If I remember the bubbles are called sryinx. Dont hold me to it, but you can google it. When my Chiari was found that was something they looked for. "

" They actually told me I had that but of course it supposedly went away with the first surgery. But then again alot of other symmptoms came back, and worse then they were so why not that too. Thank you very much for the info. "
