I have an Arnold Chiari Malformation, type 1. My son's biological sister got diagnosed with the same thing last month. We're trying to find statistics on how rare it is, how many people per thousand are diagnosed, or whatever. And we're also wondering, is it genetic or hereditary? Links appreciated.

With everything going on about E.Coli, not to sound nasty purposely, but can you get E.Coli from "tossing salads" or in other words licking someones *** crack, I don't know any other terms to describe it. I've always wanted to know this every since I learned about it.

Does anyone know what excessive thirst is caused by? In the last 3 days i have drank like 2 1/2 to 3 gallons of tea and water. I have to have a drink every second of the day. If i go without drinking for more than an hour I feel sick. Does anyone know if this is normal, or is it a sign of something? I have been tested for diabetes and it was negitive. Could there be something else?

the radiologist and neuro keep saying my MRI of the brain is unchanged yet when i read the copy it says things it didnt say before. i ask what this stuff means and get no answer. there is a large region of confluent increased white matter signal intensity on FLAIR and T2 weighted imaging in the right frontoparietal lobes that is associated with adjacent and confluent involvement of the cerebral cortex of the right prefrontal gyrus and even a small segment of the right postcentral gyrus. this is associated with cortical atrophy and adjacent sulcal widening in these regions. what does this mean and what would cause shrinkage in a 34 yr old woman? there is also some asymmetry of the brainstem such that the right cerebral peduncle and right pons are smaller and less conve than the left. now what does that mean and what would cause that?

I have had these "attacks" since December. Adding fiber to my diet has helped, but I am still having them. I have done research on the Internet, and I am sure I am having gall bladder attacks. My doctor won't see my for over a week. Is that okay, or should I go to the ER if I have an attack between now and then? The pain is awful, lasts for hours, and makes me feel like crap the next day.
