dont be sorry we all need to vent sometimes
It is very frustrating, I went to drs for yrs and none listened.....we all r crazy...full of anxiety.....neurotics......
If they had an issue that caused them pain, but I read in a book that it couldn't possibly...would u listen to a book, or the person that had it?.....duh
Most of the time we have no idea we have a condition at all...just pain....and drs just shove pain meds down our throats hoping we will go away.....they know it is above them and they can not deal with it, but their egos will not allow them to admit it.....this is y u need a true chiari specialist that is well educated and experienced with chiari and syringomyelia.
And please vent away...it is one way we can keep our sanity...and not let those ill manor-ed drs win!!!

I'm so sorry about your experience, it must make it so much worse being a nurse and knowing that they are not treating you as they should be. My sister is a nurse and she was repeatedly appalled at the way I had been treated.
It is hard to do but the only piece of advice I can give is to ignore the Drs who are not working toward helping you...and find one that CAN!! So important..if you find a good specialist then everything else will fall into place. I would start researching into a NS now.
Good luck
