Does it get worse?
Can chiari get worse? Not the symptoms but the actual herniation? I am 15 so my brain is still growing. Right now I have about a 2mm herniation which my doctor is not classifying as chiari (the struggle) and she's basing it off of my MRI from a year ago. So I was just wonder after a year has passed since my last MRI could the herniation have gotten bigger.

I replied to this question on your other thread.....but yes, the herniation can grow in size....
If your symptoms have changed since your last MRI you should have another one to compare it to the last one.
