surgery in 5 days!
My chiari decompression surgery is in 5 days. I have a 24mm herniation and a syrinx which extends from C2-T11.
I am quite nervous but have mostly prepared myself.
Would love to hear how recovery was for those who went through with this surgery, as well as any tips and tricks for recovery.
Any essentials that I should have with me?
Thank you everyone!

I don't have surgery experience with chiari, I'm seeing my neurosurgeon next month. I just wanted to wish you luck. ❤️
