Hi tazbo, well at least the UK MS Soc put something out about the Buffalo study: here in Canada they haven't even mentioned it !!!! I know it's been said before on various TIMS forums, but the "MS Societies" just don't seem to care that this might be a possible and acceptable treatment for the disease, and that seems to be because their "advisers" are the Neuro doctors who might get their noses knocked right out of joint if indeed it can be shown that MS is not all about autoimmunity but might also involve cardio-vascular.

The MS Societies are not interested because their bread and butter for their publications come from the drug companies. :x

In Denmark, indeed throughout all of Scandinavia, the attitude of the MS-societies are extremely negative and press-coverage is nonexistant. VERY disapointing. We are working on it though... Hopefully we can change it.

Yes Taz, I did know it was for another MS organasiation, not ours, I just wanted to remind readers that we at MSRC have been reporting all news and comment on CCSVI since Dr Zamboni first reported studies on it. :wink:
