Sharon if you find one in Illinois please let me know.  Cause I am looking as well thanx!

I know of a neurologist that has dealt with chiari.  Took my daughter there and he was good about medicating for symptoms but didn't get far with anything else seeing as she had PFD on 10/2010.  Was waiting for more time to pass and ended up moving so searching for doctor where we live now.  Here is his contact information  Dr. Wilkin in Schamburg ...630-339-5300
