p.s. Does anyone know how to make a post a sticky?

WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My computer blocks the survey site and gives a warning of a virus.

I'm new but I think I read that only a This is MS moderator/administrator can make a post a sticky.

If you hit the Feedback button on the left side menu, you may request a Sticky.

This survey is great! I can't wait to read results! Thank you!!

CCSVI:  Making Sense of MS

Tigersurvey.com is a free survey hosting site that I found via google to create the survey.

I had the procedure 6/18 and I wanted to get information that could be compiled in one format.

The tracking project sticky is very helpful but can be cumbersome at times because of the amount of information one has to weed through.

Who is collecting this info and what is the purpuse, research?

When and how are we going to know about the results of the survey?

I was diagnosed with CCSVI and I was treated for it but my neuro conditon is not listed in the survey:

I have Transverse Myelitis, only one lesion c3-c5.

I have do not have MS or any of the other conditons listed such as CIS.

I created the survey; I'm collecting the results. It's just for general info - out of curiosity. I won't be submitting it for any kind of quantitative medical research or anything like that.

I will probably give it a month or so to give people a chance to respond and then post the results here.

suzq, I hope it's OK that I posted your message about the survey on the "CCSVI in MS" Facebook page. Hope that will generate more response. If you don't want it there for some reason, let me know and I'll take it down. (In retrospect, I should have asked first - I'm sorry.)

Can the survey be amended to address situations such as TMrox has brought up?

I hope you get a good response to this! People (including me) are starving for a better idea about outcomes of treatment.

It is a well-thought survey; please allow me 1 remark:



'just' pre-procedure or during sickness evolution (which is pre-procedure)

ie.: Before being confined in a wheelchair I used a walker, before that a cane etc...

But I haven't got the procedure yet so we'll see...

MS_HOPE - no thank you, that's great! I posted it there too, put I didn't see it.

Algis - I mean pre-procedure AND throughout the course of your disease. Thanks for your feedback! Once you've had your venoplasty, please fill it out!

thanks suzq77, for clarifying issues regarding your survey.

It will be great if you could add an option to cover cases like me Transverse Myelitis and not MS. As a matter of fact you could add 'other condition, please specify'.

According to the Buffalo study there are people with CCSVI who do not have MS, such as neurosarcoidosis, Devic's, healthy controls. I do not know if any of these cases have been treated.
