I'm sorry, but I really don't understand what you're saying. Can you give some more details?

There have been plenty of reports of people getting told they don't have ccsvi based on the imaging but then they do once the venogram is done. Sadly it's gone the other way too, where imaging shows ccsvi but the docs can't find it once they go in.

How experienced was your doctor?

neg. results of doppler

Post by tiredloulou »

1. I had the ccsvi ultra sound Tuesday..........
the tech. doing this was trained in Italy by Zamboni's team( he spoke of)

sounded positive in me looking farther into treatment, when we finished up ultra sound( report will come to my dr. in 1 week)
I have the disc also.........

which I will give to my GP, who sent me.......

2. Along with this test, he also sent me for jugular doppler test
( different location) and this tech. said, my doppler was clear clear

3. I am wondering if, a regular doppler, shows a false reading?

probably too excited I was able to access the ccsvi test......
need to wait, for my doctor to get this report.......

and he'll have to decide on what test he trust?
maybe request a mrv?

any feed back is welcomed.......

Ontario, Canada.,
just started doing my homework on getting this moving forward

Of the two, I'd trust the one done by the tech trained in Zamboni's methods.
