This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

Hi
I was in the hospita l from Monday 09.Nov. On Tuesday morning, 09.XI professor from Israel came to Warsaw to help in the surgery. Began to study the preparations for surgery to take place on Wednesday 10.XI. Ultrasound and angiography at a table that is where operations and involves ballooning stents are make. While ultrasound has found a valve that can be removed. In the leg, in the stomach and in the hand under my armas well. However, when examining the jugular vein on the right side there was no reflux or turbulence found. The left side is also good flow (where the stent). Then angiography. The professor was at all times by me.(Very nice man I must say) Double-checked the right vein and ... there is no reflux, and no turbulence!. SHOCK! My body just repaired it, after11 months the damaged was recovered. But I feel bad. Barely walk. Professor, associate professors here on the spot, Dr. Schelling of Austria ordered the exact MRI of the spine and the draining veins cerebrospinal fluid. The problem is in the spine and spinal cord, ie in the veins: Cavas sueprior upper cava to the internal cerebral vein cerbri which nourish the spinal cord. Dr. Schelling told me on 10th Nov. evening, that the problem is here. Many people according statement of Dr. Schelling has this problem. These are the ones that do not have the jugular vein deformation. The same says professor and associate professor. It makes no sense to operate jogularis, as it repaired itself!. On 11.XI morning MRI and figh tgo on. In this hospital is all under one roof. You do not need to ride on the MRI. Hospital is of the high categroy. Professor from Israel did not stay for Wednesday. He returned to Israel earlier (in Israel for a medical visit to him you have to wait 2-3 months ...). CD with MRI tests ordered by dr Schelling agreed with the Professor (Cavs superior upper cava to the internal cerebral vein cerbri which nourish the spinal cord) was already send to Austria to Dr Schelling. My odyssey continues...

p.s.For such a studies Dr Schelling was waiting for many years. Now talking to assistant professor, who confirmed the possibility of the tests ordered by Dr Schelling. This could be the missing element in the MS removal treatment.

rici, you are certainly being put through the mill. i hoped you would be up and running again when they got this resolved for you.

it does sound like because of your case it is bringing a better understanding to ccsvi.

i'm sure you have read happypoet's experience since she is trying chiro.

so, thanks for keeping us updated. you are not alone having had the ccsvi procedure and still getting worse and hopefully soon we all will be helped.

the best thoughts to you.

Rici,

Wow! We're so happy for you... it's wonderful that your vein repaired itself and that you have NO reflux and NO turbulence! Is the surgery for the valve replacement canceled? Do you still have CCSVI according to Dr. Zamboni's five criteria?

You are definitely on an oddesy! Now you need to rest and get stronger -- I'm sorry you have so many symptoms. Hopefully, your symptoms will improve. You will continue to be in our prayers.

Thank you for the update!

Warmest regards,
Bronic & Pam

That is fantastic news. Glad to hear your jugulars are in good shape, now for those spinal cord veins! Wishing you the best.

Hallo Everybody,
Thanks you all for supporting me. I am in good hands anywhere - here is the picture of the hospital I was in: http://www.ccsvi-ms.pl/szpital/img248.jpg Doctors from that hospital are consulting my case with Dr Schelling and agree for a cooperation with professor from Israel - same who came for my surgery. Professor promised me to fight till the happy end in my case. They both Dr Schelling and professor are consulting each other also. Are waiting for a CD with examination to come . Professor asked me not to worry. He said it is much better I do not need this very complicate surgery.
Greetings

You're in very good hands with all those doctors! We're very happy for you!!

Dr. Schelling is very kind. He replied to all our emails, and his answers to our IJV valve questions stopped our worries. The CCSVI and CCVBP thread, started by Dr. Michael Flanagan (uprightdoc), talks about Dr. Schelling's theories. Please tell him HappyPoet and Bronic say hello and thank you!

Wow! A new flat-screen TV!! Your hospital room looks like a hotel room!!!

Your case is very important, so please keep us updated with details, lots of details. Thank you!

Best wishes,
Bronic & Pam

rici this is good news Im very pleased that you have answers and hope again long may it continue for you xxx

Rici, thanks for sharing your odissey.
All the best,
Pepe.

Rici my friend,

It is good to see your face and to read that you do not need the complicated surgery.

The body sure is a complicated and miraculous thing, what a wonder and marvel. I am so happy to read your statement, "It makes no sense to operate jogularis, as it repaired itself!."

I am also delighted to hear the confidence you have in your proffessor's and that Dr Schelling is there for you 100%.

Warmest Regards,
Lora

Best wishes to you. I pray the doctors will be able to fix your problem and also learn more about this evil disease in the process.

Thank you Lora
