Thanks!

Do you know what this gap means?

I’ve done some Googling, and I believe it’s the ‘atlanto-occipital gap’?

Btw, why do you ask if I’ve been in an accident? Is this not related to EDS?

I’ve had the report back from the upright MRI, and there’s no mention of this ‘gap’. How was this missed?

I’ve been looking at loads of MRIs to compare and yes, there is a definite gap there!

I do have really bad neck pain, constantly.

Thanks again
