MRI Showed Borderline Cerebellar Tonsilar Ectopia. What Could Be The Reason For Numb Tongue With Dizziness?

I have been experiencing terrible headaches and neck pain for the past eight to nine months. my MRI results just came back and they showed that I have borderline cerebellar Tonsilar ectopia. I was just at work and begin to feel very dizzy and I got a numbing feeling in my tongue which has not gone away as of yet it has been about two hours. What could this be?

hello there!
neurological involvements are always more than a few sentences query, history of cerebellar tonsillar ectopia and such symptoms need to be correlated and assessed for the severity. I suggest seek the neurologist help and sort out the cranial nerve involvement. its almost impossible to shoot blanks at diagnosis from here
