I don't remember if they called it Eagle's syndrome at the time, but we were taught about abnormal styloid process issues years ago in medical school, and how they can involve the carotid. There's a reason anatomy is classically taught in medical school (or at least was).

The thing that kind of blows me away is that this wasnt officially discovered until the 1930s but I have seen skulls dug up from ancient times that clearly show the issue.

I can look at my Xray with these nasty looking spikes and can easily see that they could create all kinds of problems depending on what they are hitting.

There is a website called Living with Eagles that patients use. It is horrifying to see how clueless Doctors are about this and what patients have been through. Luckily, I am not at the top of the the scale of side effects.

Anyone with long haul covid should definitely check their Pano. What they were able to tolerate prior to Covid may be intolerable now if Vagus nerve is damaged and those things are banging on it.
