Dr. Frim agreed to review DS MRIs

Hi everyone,

I sent Mikey's Medical records, and MRIs for Dr. Frim in Chicago to review, and I am so happy that he agreed to do it.
I asked if he is a Chiari Specialist and the girl I spoke with said absolutely. So we are just waiting now.

Barb,

There r so many types of HA's they he can have...migraines.....most chiari HA's will be from the back of the head and neck....but I found they can wrap around and feel like a vise at the temples.....

As for Dr Frim..I know he is a chiari pediatric specialist in Chicago.....and not too much else except he has a good reputation.

I will be keeping ur DS in my prayers and I hope u hear back from the dr soon.

Hi Selma,

Thank you for the info, I feel better knowing that you have heard of him and that he has a good reputation.
I am keeping my fingers crossed that we get some answers. DS is home today with a terrible HA. I am just wondering is there a specific HA that you get with Chiari? I started to chart his HAs and he has been getting  them in his temple area.  He has longer hair and he said it hurts just to shake his head.

I hope today finds you feeling well.  Your Info is much appreciated.
Barb :)

Hi Barb,

Dr Frim has a very good rep in chiari circles and I am aware of him thru his reputation only, but I have heard many speak of him highly.

Good luck with the review : )
