A few days ago we found out what Michele’s doctor thinks is the cause of all of her neurological symptoms: something known as Chiari malformation (see an article about this condition on Mayoclinic.com, a website I highly recommend). In addition she has symptoms generically described as myoclonus (a label for various kinds of movement disorder). There is also a possibility that she may have a more severe type of Chiari malformation that includes spina bifida and/or scoliosis. She has more tests scheduled to verify that. So…we are very relieved to finally know what we’re dealing with, but not sure of what will happen next.
