Dear All,
I was diagnosed with hypermobility-classical overlap EDS, and am suffering from congestion and headaches (as well as tinnitus, and open Eustachian tubes) that are likely sinus-related (nose/the soft tissue/structural problems).
I have attached a single MRI photo of my head.
I am not very experienced with head MRI scans, but from this single photo, to me, my head looks structurally abnormal in a few ways. E.g. the pronounced “vertex” on top of my skull, the pronounced nose, and it’s almost like the front of my brain is pressing down on my face more than usual (?).
It would be great if anyone, who is perhaps a bit experienced with MRI scans, could share any observation of anything “peculiar” in this photo (possibly EDS-related), so that I perhaps go and see an appropriate specialist. (If necessary, I can upload more photos, at different cross-sections.)
Many thanks!
Sorry, just don’t have time to annotate it but looking at the back of your head, the distance between C0 (head) and C1 (neck) and also C2 for that matter looks too far apart. In effect, it’s stretching up the back of your head and tilting your head forwards and possibly affecting your brainstem. The vertex you mention is what would normally be the top back of your head, if it was in it’s normal position.
