JUST FOUND YOUR BLOG - HAD DECOMPRESSION IN 1996 - WOULD LOVE TO KNOW IF OTHER PEOPLE SUFFER WITH COLD/SWOLLEN HANDS AND FEET - IT IS ONLY MY RIGHT SIDE WHICH IS AFFECTED. PAULINE
Yes my daughter does and weird temperature issues too!
Hiya
Its not something that I have come across yet, but the list of symptoms is massive!
There is a forum at www.chiari.co.uk/chat where you can meet up with other people in the same position or there are several facebook groups that are around and contain a really brilliant bunch of people.
If you have Facebook check out http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_128833390503455 and contact one of the admins.
Great to meet you.

Is this list really up-to-date? I've seen it on the Ann Conroy website for years without any additions, deletions or changes.
To be honest this shouldn't actually be on here without the permission of the Trustees of The Ann Conroy Trust. To post info from the website or newsletter needs written permission from ACT.
Is this another "we can't help you until you pay us money" comment from ACT?
How small minded (and no this isnt a pun!) do you ACT people have to be?
Are you an ACT member or are you one of the directors?
If I receive a request to remove this from the site officially by ACT then I will.............. in the mean time please don't be negative on here!
This site and many others like it are intersted only in helping people............... not making money, not charging a mmbership and not belittling genuine people who are looking for help.
Can I say the same about ACT site and facebook page? it's a shame that I and many others can't.
Thanks
Chris
I had my surgery under Mr Adrian Casey at The National Hospital for Neurology Queens Square London if you would like to add him - think he is the only chairi expert there. regards, JS London
not sure to be honest, but its the most up-to-date one that I have seen.
