You know you have chiari when you let your phone or laptop get down to 4% and then suddenly walking into the living room to grab your charger is a chore

when you are laughing so hard you're crying then two seconds later the tears are due to the severe stabbing pain in your head from laughing.

Upon "catching" yourself transposing words or even using the wrong word entirely you say "Score" and whoever is near you give you a high five :) this also has the added bonus of:::
You tell your daughter to get the remote out of the freezer and she brings you your car keys. And sadly that IS what I wanted ;)

You know it's chiari when the funniest joke ends with laughing followed by feeling like a vise grip is on your head.

You know you have Chiari when you can't remeber things from a week, day or a second ago. I can't remember what I last ate, what day it is or remember a co-workers name for a few minutes. So pittaful!

You know you have Chiari when your head hurts so much that you cut it yourself--and don't mind the consequences.

You know you have Chiari when you consider moving, but the Dr. & drug store are both 5 min. away, and that's a consideration for staying put.
