This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

has anybody that you know

had liberation- started improving- felt worse/relapse- recovered again without second procedure

does anybody know if the success rate for the liberation procedure second time round depends on how long it was successful first time round

liberation 3 weeks ago, steady improvment, last couple of days feeling worse. suddenly I can hardly see on left eye, worse on problems then I ever had, and vertigo is getting as bad as it had ever been before on a bad day.

any views on this would be most welcome

I only know that which I've read in this forum. But for what it's worth, it sure sounds like re-stenosis to me.

read this post sofia, it will answer some of your questions

here is someone who had improvements, then felt worse than even before the procedure, then this week is back to feeling good again:

But that's the only report that I can remember that's like that.

hi sofia,

Are you resting enough/eating well/taking good care of yourself? I spent most of last weekend asleep - just couldn't stop. It was at least as bad as before procedure! But I'd had a really busy week and had not been eating well. Just really needed to rest and now it's better. Also I have the occasional day when my eyesight and brain fog is as bad as before procedure but again it improves in a day or so. Hopefully this is all that it is with you too. It's only been a few weeks since you travelled all that way (by bus?) and had the procedure (which is no small task for the body). This could even make a healthy person feel less well than they usually do.
I really hope you feel better soon.

I know colapesce, and thanks for your support guys:-)
Hopefully I wil be able to rest it off. I am putting my hopes on that. It was a very busy weekend, and monday we had friends over for dinner. I will rest this week and see how it all goes. Rest is defenetly an issue, as I do feel worse at night, and quite a bit better in the mornings. The optic nerve issues are the most dominant, they might be new as I got pains with it as well as it beeing quite blurred. But it is the same eye, and I think it is in same spot as before.
Off ot bed I go
