HI, IVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH CHIARI MALFORMATION TYPE 1. THIS DIAGNOSIS WAS MADE SEVERAL YRS AGO AND SURGERY WAS RECOMMEDED, I NEVER GOT IT DONE BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID. I AM ALSO SIGNIFICANTLY OVERWEIGHT, AND WAS THINKING THE PAIN WAS DUE TO DIABETES. I GOT MY LAB TESTS DONE, AND I DO NOT HAVE DIABETES. WHAT COULD BE THE CAUSE OF THIS PAIN

Summarized question: What causes pain during chiari malformation type 1 ?
