Does anyone else not really have much headache pain but have other debilitating symptoms like dizziness, vertigo, blurry vision, nystagmus, tingling & numbness, tinnitus, etc.? I have heard that some neurosurgeons will not do surgery unless you have bad headaches, but my neurosurgeon thinks surgery is justified for these other symptoms. For reference my herniation is about 30 mm, but the CINE MRI did not show a lot of obstruction in CSF flow. My symptoms got much worse after getting long Covid and also a gnarly upper neck injury. Everything gets worse with changes in barometric pressure, when bending my neck, and when lying down.
