I sent the links to family and friends wanting to learn more about CCSVI.
I will be forever grateful to Dr. Dake for putting it all on the line for those of us with MS. He is a brave and wonderful man!!

Now that this is on youtube, no excuse not to send it to your local interventional radiologist...

My favorite quote is from part 2.
"Global symptoms attributable to MS, but not referrable to a specific anatomic loci or demyelinated plaque ( ie: fatigue, headache, heat sensitivity, brain fog, urinary urgency, etc.) show short term improvement and in some cases completely resolve. This suggests that these particular MS symptoms may be more accurately categorized as related to venous obstruction.

Can you possibly prevent further deterioration and alter the trajectory or the tempo of the disease progression by providing a better blood brain barrier by reducing this venous obstruction...?"

We have seen this first hand. As Jeff sleeps thru the night (no more urgent bladder, no more sleep apnea or spasms) awakes refreshed, and works full days (no more cog fog or crippling fatigue) and has not had any progression or relapses since his procedure. We believe his disease course has been altered, and he has indeed seen relief now that his venous obstruction is removed.

please view this important presentation. It's all there...

Cheer, I'm reading between the lines I admit, but it's also quite apparent to me at least that Dake sees this as a direct relationship for nearly all his patients. He wouldn't make a statement like that if he were only seeing venous obstruction in 55% of his patients (a la the BNAC study).

merrier) CCSVI site called CCSVI Locator

Yep, and IBT has the same effect for me.... within days and weeks. I am getting better every day since i started it. For example, after 5 years of suffering from urinary tract infections, now its over. Fatigue is much better...

It would be a nice idea to start a trial for IBT.... ?
