"Today i`ve spoken with Ivo Petrov and dr Grozdinski about the results of angioplasty . Ivo Petrov is very big optimist and he said that even his expectations are exceeded repeatedly . The unofficial (i repeat the unofficial ) conclusion is that when evaluation of EDSS is not more than 2.5 the recovery in almost all of the cases is 100% (I mean that entirely eliminated MS symptoms) .The results of angioplasty of Tokuda Hospital will be officially announced at the international conference in late september or early october this year .
But there is improvement even in people with more than 2.5 - I can personally testify for this . Now i`m with 1 point of Kurtzke scale better than before the procedure ."

Well, i can not personally testify for 100% recovery of course and i am not over 2 on the EDSS scale. I hope when the Bulgarians announce their results they will be totally honest whatsoever and that this patient is simply over reacting. I feel better alright but there is a big difference between that and total recovery. Just keep an eye for over enthusiasts.

Well, this makes sense though. The ones with videos on youtube who get all the way better right away tend to be the ones who start out with less disablily.

I wonder what the results are for people with an EDSS score of 5? I'm hoping for any good results no matter how small.
