Dammit
Well, fuck.
Saw the new neurosurgeon today. He had a look at my old scans (from barely a year ago). Unlike my neurologist, who took the word of the radiologist, who said I showed "slight arthritis" in my neck area but nothing more serious, the neurosurgeon thinks I have a syringomyelia which might require surgery on the Chiari malformation. They're gonna schedule me for a new neck/spine MRI, and we'll see where that goes.
Any good thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
