Update: Not PPA, maybe Chiari Malformation

I posted here a few times because I was dealing with strange pp symptoms : disoriented sensation, headaches, heavy-headedness, and fatigue that was not consistent with the amount of sleep I was getting.

I just wanted to update that after being told it was PPA for the past few months, a neurologist has confirmed that I need vestibular PT and I'm having an MRI to rule out Chiari Malformation. She believes it's related to pressure on the brain stem during labor.

Thank you all for your information and help and I apologize that I thought I was experiencing the same feelings as you.

    Wow. No need to apologize for possibly having a Chiari Malformation! I hope your MRI goes okay and you get some answers and eventually some relief.  I'm not sure good luck is the most appropriate phrase right now but I'm thinking about you. Smile
