Dr. Hernandez said the bypass surgery went wonderful and was very pleased with the outcomes. Deirdre had the "Hernandez Bypass" done yesterday on her internal jugular using the saphenous vein for CCSVI.
Deirdre had a vein patch surgery done on the other internal jugular vein in January 2012 by Dr Hernandez.
For those that angioplasty is no longer an option due to blocked veins, this gives us hope.

Dx: CCSVI Tx: HERNANDEZ Bypass of the internal jugular on pt Deirdre C. post-op 36 hours update: Perfect balance, presents full sensitivity in her hands & feet no more numbness in ALL her extremities, feet were curved before surgery and today are straight. Was able to sleep through the night first time in months, Right arm before surgery had involuntary movements/spasms & today completely gone/normal again, vision super clear in her words

Congrats to Deirdre! This must mean too that the the other vein was still patent three months post-surgery?

Yes, Cece Deirdre's other side has remained patent. Thank you
