    Hi Michelle,

     I am so sorry to hear about your daughter, I doubt that chiari that make her to change her attitude, I think its just a state of the age, on the other hand, it could be because she might be feeling unwell, headache, she has to take on to the closests....have you take it to the doctor perhaps get her counselling as well, it might need specialist to talk to her, she might be frustrated with her condition but do not know how to express it ..so be sure about it..but at least she has the shunt put it..honestly..work with her health care professionals....to see what happen..ask her if she feel any thing..pain ..??, have a complimentary therapy such as massage or reflexology always helpful...let us know how you are getting on

    Hi Michelle

    I have been reading couple of scientific articles relation between CM and psychopathic behaviours. I believe CM can couse all those symptoms. I use to think I was an autistic but I believe CM makes me sometime behave like an autistic all my life. I am now 52 and waiting for operation.
