Podcasts about Chiari

You got an MRI. It showed a Chiari malformation. Now what?In this episode of the Headache Doctor Podcast, Dr. Taves breaks down what a Chiari malformation is, why it shows up on MRI, and whether it's actually the cause of your headaches, migraines, dizziness, or neck pain.You'll learn why imaging findings don't always tell the full story, when surgery may be worth considering, and why neck tension, mobility, and function still matter.If you've been diagnosed with Chiari and feel unsure about your next step, this episode will help you think through your options more clearly.

This week, we present new research guiding treatment of pulmonary embolism, early progress in cardiac regeneration with engineered heart tissue, and treatments for gastroesophageal cancer and Chiari malformation. We review leishmaniasis and follow a revealing neurologic case. Perspectives discuss nutrition policy, tickborne illness, structural competence in medicine, and the arrival of closure.

Send us Fan MailWhat can Chiari malformation reveal about the gaps that still exist in neurological care and patient awareness?This week's episode features my conversation with Debbie Ryan, an inspiring mother of four from West Ireland who is studying anatomy and physiology, reflexology, and holistic massage, while also navigating life with Chiari malformation.In this conversation, Debbie opens up about her diagnosis journey, the symptoms that led her to seek answers, and the emotional impact of living with Chiari while navigating everyday life. We talk about how her experiences motivated her to create an online community to spread awareness and support others with Chiari malformation.We also discuss the realities of navigating healthcare with a chronic neurological condition and compare the healthcare systems in Ireland and the United States, including both the strengths and the challenges patients face in each system.Debbie is such a genuine, resilient, and thoughtful person, and I think her story will resonate with so many people — whether you're personally affected by Chiari malformation, interested in neurology, or simply looking to hear from someone who's turned adversity into advocacy.Don't forget to rate and subscribe to The Neurological Disorder Podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your podcasts.

How do you sum up the experience of motherhood, and all of the changes it brings, both big and small? It's a transformation that affects everything — hormones, body image, relationships, feelings, money, career — even the answers to larger, existential questions like, “Who am I in this world, and what is my role?”On this episode, we explore the impact of motherhood. We talk with a psychologist about “matrescence” — a term used to describe the multi-faceted transformation ushered in by motherhood — and why it comes as a surprise to so many mothers. We find out how motherhood rewires the brain, and how those changes affect the way we think and behave. And we hear about a new play that challenges ideas about motherhood and women's health. After interviewing women about their experiences of motherhood, Aurélie Athan came across a term that seemed to describe all of the changes: Matrescence. Athan is a reproductive psychologist and a professor at Teachers College at Columbia University in New York City. When health-and-science journalist Chelsea Conaboy first became a mother, she was surprised to find that the maternal instinct she'd heard about for years wasn't kicking in. That led Conaboy to investigate some of our long-held beliefs about motherhood — and how they influence our ways of thinking and behaving. Her book is called “Mother Brain: How Neuroscience Is Rewriting the Story of Parenthood.” We talk with writer and actor Andrea Peterson about her new play, (plan c) — a dark comedy that explores the gray areas of motherhood, from medical issues to fears about maintaining independence to relationship troubles. The world premiere of (plan c) with Pygmalion Productions is running now at the Rose Wagner Black Box Theater in Salt Lake City, Utah. When Katie Pratt was 3 years old, she was diagnosed with a Chiari malformation, a rare brain condition in which the cerebellum bulges through an opening in the skull into the spinal canal. Katie's mom, Wendy, had a hunch about what the solution would be — but it wasn't until doctors opened up Katie's skull that they discovered she was right. Katie interviews her mom about the experience, and her incredible flash of mother's intuition.

Syringomyelia in Cavaliers and Beyond: What Every Breeder Needs to Know Dr. Marty Greer joins Laura Reeves to answer a listener question and break down one of the most serious and underdiagnosed neurological conditions affecting small breed dogs. If you've never heard of syringomyelia, you're not alone — but if you breed Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Brussels Griffons, Pomeranians or other small brachycephalic breeds, this episode could change how you think about your breeding program. Dr. Marty Greer walks Laura through the difference between Chiari-like malformation and syringomyelia (SM), two conditions that often get lumped together but aren't quite the same thing. The short version: when the skull is too small for the cerebellum, fluid circulation gets disrupted and painful pockets of fluid can form along the spinal cord. The result is a dog in chronic, often invisible pain. The symptoms are easy to miss. Phantom scratching near the neck, sleeping with the head elevated, flinching when picked up or eating from a floor-level bowl — all of these can look like something minor. In Cavaliers especially, an ear condition with overlapping symptoms makes diagnosis even trickier. Only an MRI gives you a definitive answer, and that's where things get complicated fast. MRIs run anywhere from $1,500 to $3,000. Dogs need to be fully anesthetized. Cavaliers aren't the easiest anesthetic candidates for a variety of reasons. And even after all that investment, the genetics are multifactorial and polygenetic, meaning two "clear" dogs can still produce affected offspring. The numbers are sobering. When screening efforts launched in the U.S., the breed incidence was estimated at 60 to 80 percent. Careful screening cut that roughly in half — but that still leaves the breed sitting around 35 to 40 percent affected, and only a fraction of dogs are ever screened. Treatment options exist but aren't encouraging. Surgical intervention has a relapse rate of over 50 percent. Long-term management means gabapentin, steroids and other medications for the life of the dog. It's a heavy burden for dogs and owners alike. So what can breeders actually do right now? Marty and Laura make the case for breeding normal to normal as consistently as possible, tracking health outcomes across generations and pushing for group MRI clinics to bring costs down through volume. One breeder they profile used to pack 8 to 10 dogs into a vehicle and drive to Canada just to get affordable scans. That's dedication — but it shouldn't be the only option. If you have access to an underutilized MRI machine or you're actively doing DNA research on this condition, Laura wants to hear from you. This is exactly the kind of problem the Pure Dog Talk community wants to tackle. Email: Laura@puredogtalk.com Find more detailed information about syringomyelia HERE.

Spinal cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) leaks are significantly more common in those with connective tissue disorders than many realize, yet patients often suffer for years before finding the right diagnosis. In this episode, neuroradiologist Dr. Andrew Callen joins Dr. Linda Bluestein and co-host Dr. Knight to discuss the complexities of CSF dynamics and the challenges of diagnosing leaks when routine imaging appears normal. Dr. Callen explains the different types of leaks, including the elusive CSF-venous fistula, and why common clinical assumptions, like the requirement of a low opening pressure, are often incorrect. From the Bern Score to the critical differences between Chiari malformations and positional brain sag, this conversation provides an essential roadmap for patients and clinicians navigating the "unseen" world of intracranial hypotension. Takeaways: Cerebral Spinal Fluid Basics: CSF is a clear fluid that cushions the brain and spine and plays a vital role in metabolic function. Three Major Leak Types: Leaks can occur via bone spurs poking the dura, nerve root tears (common in EDS), or CSF-venous fistulas where fluid drains into the bloodstream. Atypical Presentation: While "orthostatic headaches" (worse when upright) are classic, many patients experience vestibular symptoms like ringing in the ears, muffled hearing, imbalance, or cognitive "brain fog". The Pressure Myth: The vast majority of proven CSF leak patients do not have low opening pressure; it is a disease of low volume, not necessarily low pressure. Chiari Misdiagnosis: Positional "brain sag" can look identical to a Chiari malformation on imaging, leading to inappropriate surgical treatments if not carefully evaluated. The Bern Score: This probabilistic scoring system based on MRI findings helps radiologists determine how likely it is that a myelogram will successfully find a patient's leak. Imaging Strategy: Clinicians should look beyond simple reports and request specific measurements, such as the optic nerve sheath diameter and the Bern Score, to build an evidence-based case.

In this episode of the Neuroveda Podcast for Complex Health, Gillian Ehrlich, family nurse practitioner certified in Ayurveda and functional medicine, welcomes one of Neuroveda Health's own clinicians, Brianna Cardenas, DMSc, PA-C, ATC, CSC1.Dr. Cardenas is a specialist in Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), hypermobility spectrum disorders, and complex neurologic and immunologic comorbidities, including dysautonomia, mast cell activation syndrome, spinal CSF leaks, craniocervical instability, venous outflow disorders, tethered cord, adhesive arachnoiditis, and related pressure disorders. She sees patients at Neuroveda Health and provides remote consultations worldwide through her company, Healed and Empowered.Together, Gillian and Brianna explore one of the most complex and often misunderstood areas of connective tissue disease: how to differentiate common neurologic conditions in EDS and related connective tissue disorders. They discuss why these conditions are so often missed in conventional medicine, how connective tissue impacts the nervous system, and why patients are frequently shuffled between specialties without anyone seeing the full picture.This conversation covers the role of connective tissue, fascia, and the extracellular matrix in neurologic symptoms; how pressure disorders can show up as high pressure, low pressure, or fluctuating “spiky” patterns; why symptoms may worsen with position changes, head turning, lying flat, or being upright; the overlap between craniocervical instability, Eagle syndrome, Chiari-like presentations, CSF leaks, venous congestion, tethered cord, and arachnoiditis; why standard imaging is often inadequate for hypermobile patients; what symptom tracking can reveal; and practical ideas for diagnostic workup and imaging requests that may help patients and clinicians move closer to answers.Dr. Cardenas also shares how her own lived experience with severe chronic illness has shaped her clinical work and deepened her commitment to helping patients who so often fall through the cracks receive rigorous, compassionate, and collaborative care.In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Cardenas serves as an Assistant Professor in the MEDEX Northwest Physician Assistant Program at the University of Washington, where she teaches future physician assistants. She has lectured nationally and internationally on EDS and related comorbid conditions and is one of fewer than 100 certified fascial counterstrain practitioners worldwide.This episode is especially for patients, caregivers, and clinicians trying to make sense of symptoms that do not fit neatly into one specialty. It is an invitation to think more broadly, more collaboratively, and more compassionately about complex chronic illness.*Please note: This podcast is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for individualized medical care.

Chronic pain is often treated as a problem to suppress with medication or surgery, but what if it's actually a signal from a complex system that needs to be addressed holistically?In this episode of The Mind–Gut Conversation, Dr. Mayer is joined by Jared E. Katz, author of Retrain the Brain: Self-Help for Traumatic Brain Injury and creator of the pain management app Painless. Jared's story begins more than twenty years ago, when a traumatic brain injury left him with cognitive impairment and two rare, painful conditions: Chiari malformation and syringomyelia.Rather than accepting a life defined by pain, Jared spent years quietly experimenting with how he eats,sleeps, moves, and thinks. He developed what he calls a “brain health algorithm” — a set of daily practices spanning nutrition, cognitive activity, movement, sleep, and social engagement. The result is not just a book, but a blueprint for anyone living with chronic pain or seeking to understand whatbrain health truly looks like in practice.This episode is slightly different from our usual focus on the gut microbiome, but the principles align closely with the holistic, systems-based thinking Dr. Mayer teaches. Jared's experience demonstrates that the brain is not a machine with one broken part — it's a dynamic, interconnected system capable of adaptation and healing when given the right conditions.Topics discussed include:• What a “brain health lifestyle” actually involves• How anti-inflammatory nutrition and eating patterns affectpain and cognition• Why chronic pain requires addressing multiple systems, notjust one symptom• How cognitive exercises like writing can help rewire thebrain• The future of personalized pain managementThis is a practical, deeply human conversation for anyoneinterested in chronic pain, brain health, and the power of self-directed healing.Chapters:0:00 - Introduction6:04 - Jared's Story: The Injury & Living With Chronic Pain11:30 - Nutrition, Diet & the WAH Principle16:57 - The Painless App & the Future of Pain Management22:30 - The Five Pillars of a Brain Health Lifestyle27:48 - Resilience, Recovery & the Gut-Brain Connection35:11 - Psychedelics, Neuroplasticity & Closing Thoughts

In questa puntata parto da un'immagine forte: i geroglifici. Per anni, troppi bilanci sono sembrati così: difficili da leggere, poco comprensibili, lontani dalle persone. Racconto un aneddoto concreto sul lavoro fatto in questi anni per rendere la lettura del bilancio più chiara, più ordinata e più utile per condòmine e condòmini: meno fronzoli, più struttura, più trasparenza. Il punto chiave è questo: “facile da capire” non significa “semplice fatto male”. Un bilancio deve restare corretto, completo e verificabile, ma anche leggibile e domandabile in assemblea. Non è una puntata per vantarsi: è un invito a migliorare insieme. I feedback ricevuti nel tempo ci hanno già aiutato a introdurre nuove funzioni, e possono continuare a farlo.

Dalla sala dei geroglifici del Museo Egizio di Torino, una riflessione semplice: un bilancio non deve sembrare un enigma. In questa puntata parliamo di leggibilità, chiarezza e fiducia nei numeri.

Nella puntata di questa settimana torniamo sulla storia della strìa de Nae Benvegnuda Pincinella. L'occasione è lo spettacolo La Signora del Gioco, ne parliamo con l'autrice e regista Giuseppina Turra. Prima, le notizie in breve. Dall'inchiesta per reati legati allo sfruttamento sessuale di minori, anche bambini, che coinvolge un ex consigliere comunale di Brescia, il sequestro di un impianto di biogas a Chiari, il blocco di quello che voleva realizzare Geobet ad Offlaga, scuole che chiudono in Val Camonica, le richieste di pene sul maxi processo per 'ndrangheta legate alla cosca Tripodi...

In this episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein is joined by Dr. Eric Singman, a neuro-ophthalmologist who lives at the intersection of the eyes, the brain, and the complex symptoms so many people with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome experience. They dig into why EDS patients often struggle with vision even when everything looks “normal,” why convergence problems and visual fatigue are so common, and how conditions like POTS, mast cell activation, Chiari malformation, and cervical instability quietly affect how we see. They also talk about dry eye, visual snow, glare sensitivity, elevated intracranial pressure without papilledema, and why so many EDS patients are sent down expensive treatment paths that may not actually help. This conversation is part science, part myth-busting, and part reality check for anyone who's been told their symptoms don't make sense. If you've ever felt dismissed, confused, or overwhelmed by eye and vision issues in connective tissue disorders, this one's for you. Takeaways: Normal eye exams don't mean your vision problem isn't real, especially for people with EDS. Many vision symptoms in EDS are collateral damage, not primary eye disease. Convergence issues are often blamed, but fatigue, cognition, and neck instability may be the real drivers. Dry eye in EDS is more complex than “use drops”, especially with mast cell involvement. The neck may be the missing piece in vision, brain fog, headaches, and reading difficulty. Find the episode transcript here.

In this episode of the Experience Miracles podcast, Dr. Tony Ebel addresses a critical and misunderstood topic: chiropractic care for children with hypermobility conditions like EDS, Down syndrome, and Chiari malformations. He explains why these children not only can receive chiropractic care safely, but actually need it more than typical children. Dr. Ebel breaks down how hypermobile joints create compensatory fixated segments that become subluxated, requiring specialized mixed-technique approaches. This episode is essential for parents who have been incorrectly advised by other healthcare providers to avoid chiropractic care for their hypermobile children.Key Topics & Timestamps([00:01:00]) - Why Hypermobile Children NEED Chiropractic Care More Than Others([00:03:00]) - Common Conditions: EDS, Down Syndrome, and Chiari Malformations([00:05:00]) - How the Brain Creates Compensatory Fixation in Response to Instability([00:07:00]) - Specialized Techniques Required: Tonal vs. Manual Approaches([00:11:00]) - Why This Care is Essential, Not Optional, for Genetic Hypermobility([00:12:00]) - Medical Doctors' Misunderstanding and the Harm of Avoiding Care-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

Hannah is still trying to live her life as any other 22 year old would, dancing with friends, enjoying the outdoors, and loving the cows on her family farm. She hopes to share this positive view of life with chronic illnesses on her public Instagram page beyond.the.label_0 to help show other young people with challenging diagnosis that joy and a life worth living are still possible.  In this episode of the Major Pain podcast, she took a few minutes to talk to us about her journey with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome from a lake near her home in Tennessee. Hannah started life as a perfectly healthy kid playing basketball, softball, cheerleading, and getting into trouble on the farm.  Even then she watched her brother struggle with seizures and a difficult road to diagnosis that ended with Chiari malformation and tethered cord syndrome.  When she got a concussion at the age of 13 everything seemed to change, and Hannah was also diagnosed with both Chiari and tethered cord, in addition to vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (VEDS). She would later be diagnosed with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and is exploring the possibility that she may have mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS).  Her doctors narrowed in on the vascular form of EDS when she was 16 and began having pain, fever, and illness with her periods which became unpredictable, either missing months at a time or lasting up to a year of continuous bleeding. After many surgeries to release the Chiari, fuse vertebrae, release the tethered cord, and a difficult decision to have a hysterectomy at age 19 to resolve her constant bleeding, Hannah still would not change a thing.  Though she used to wonder why god would do this to her, she now sees the good that can come from perseverance.  She talks us through her history with VEDS, tells us about her medications and coping mechanisms, as well as how her chronic illness journey has strengthened her faith.  With her long term boyfriend and service dog at her side, Hannah is a resource for other patients going through similar life challenges as she continues to find what her future will bring.

In this week's episode I chat to Madi about her third birth - a planned home water birth after cesarean. Madi's story is particularly interesting as she navigated this birth both as a mother and as a newly qualified midwife. After experiencing a relatively quick vaginal birth with her first daughter Oakley and then a caesarean under general anaesthetic with Harlow due to her Chiari malformation (where her brain herniates into her spinal column), Madi was surprised to find herself pregnant with a third baby while completing her midwifery studies.

In this episode of the Bendy Bodies Podcast, Dr. Linda Bluestein welcomes Dr. Petra Klinge, a renowned neurosurgeon specializing in tethered cord syndrome (TCS), Chiari malformation, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) disorders. They dive deep into occult tethered cord syndrome, a condition where MRI scans appear normal, yet patients still experience neurological symptoms, chronic pain, and bladder/bowel dysfunction. Dr. Klinge explains how tethered cord affects EDS patients, the role of connective tissue disorders, and what makes someone a good candidate for surgery. Whether you've been struggling with undiagnosed spinal issues or are considering tethered cord release surgery, this episode is packed with valuable insights and cutting-edge research. Takeaways: Tethered Cord Can Be “Occult” (Hidden on MRI) – Many patients with classic tethered cord symptoms are dismissed because their MRI appears “normal.” A clinical diagnosis is key. EDS Patients Are at Higher Risk – Changes in collagen and the extracellular matrix make individuals with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome more prone to tethered cord syndrome, which can be congenital or acquired. Tethered Cord Syndrome Affects the Entire Spine – While traditionally thought to impact only the lower body, new research suggests TCS can cause upper body pain, weakness, and neurological dysfunction. Surgery Isn't Always the First Step – Physical therapy, craniosacral therapy, and manual techniques may help some patients, but progressive neurological decline may require surgical release. Retethering is Possible After Surgery – Around 7% of patients may need a second surgery due to scar tissue reattaching the spinal cord, but new surgical techniques are improving long-term outcomes.

This case report comes to you from Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, a huge teaching hospital that serves the Harvad Medical School. The 52-year-old female presented with clumsiness and paresthesia of the right hand that had persisted for several days. She also had a headache and three weeks prior to presentation had undergone a suboccipital craniotomy for a Chiari I malformation. To complicate things, there was a past medical history of migraines and a family history of a Factor V Leiden mutation. The identified diagnosis is one in which evidence is limited for aspects of management, and the topics of uncertainty and mentorship in medicine also arise in this discussion.Guest Galina Gheihman, MD D (Brigham and Women's Hospital; Harvard Medical School) HostsAssociate Professor Stephen Bacchi (Massachusetts General Hospital; University of Adelaide)HaeLynn Gim (Harvard Medical School) ProductionProduced by Stephen Bacchi and Mic Cavazzini.
