So Long Story short I had the decompression surgery Dec. 2012, the surgeon did the craniectomy and scored the dura instead of doing the patch. His original plan was the craniectomy, patch, and laminectomy. I started having symptoms coming back in September, neck pain is worse with the base of skull head aches. I had an MRI today and the reading states "there is adequate flow to anterior to the medulla. The cerebellar tonsils remain low lying but there is CSF space posterior to them although no pulsatile CSF flow at the posterior craniocervical junctions. Can have someone give me some information in layman's terms. Does this possibly mean surgery again?
I have been complaining of wrist and hand weakness for a while, along with weird episodes during the night with my arm. This sounds like I should be a bit concerned.
