Hi Bobby,
In my opinion, I'd say they aren't much alike, though in SB each case is
different depending on where the opening is located, and what kind of SB it is.
There are 3 types. Mine is the 'worst', being myelomeningocele. From what I
read on CP, same is true, that there are different types, and what type you have
can vary, and the severity of symptoms can vary. In my case, I've had a few
things going on, that I have attributed to being SB, when they are listed
symptoms of CP. I take it what this lady is saying, that it is mainly due to
the hydrocephalus (which I didn't have), and her son's malformed Arnold-Chiari,
are why the docs believe CP is involved in her case....... I do not know if I
had ACM, but I do know ACM is common with myelomeningocele SB........
See you,
Beth
