My believe on this is, it is caused by an auto immune disease. All of them are connective tissue diseases. I do not believe that there is such a thing as Trumatic or idiopathic SM. I believe the spinal cord is already weakened Buy an undiagnosed connective tissue disease. And that symptoms of a manifest itself by the time a patient reaches between the ages of 30 to 40.

You can get Syringomyelia from a couple different ways. Any traumatic accident like car accident, falling, ect. Car accidents seems to be a popular way. Another way you can be born with it.

It depends upon the type some people are born with their brain tonsils too low and of course they have Chari.
Me, and the worst type to have is post-traumatic. I got blown up, hey that's life.
There are many other ways a person can get a sring, look at Arnold Schwarzenegger, a lot of strenuous and I mean incredibly strenuous activity and a lot of bearing down can cause the beginning of a syring to develop.
In my research I have also learned that a person can have Syringomyelia and it takes a traumatic event for a syring to develop and the cerebral brain fluid entering the spinal cord.
