Hello Everybody!

Just a quick reach out to post my 6 month follow-up video.
All benefits still holding firm. This whole thing has been nothing less than a massive change in my life.

Thanks to everyone for the emails and support as I went through this process. I realise I won the medical lottery and I don't take a single day for granted.

Also, to the dumbass Neurologists that have been emailing me 'in disguise'. It's the internet age. I know exactly what offices you sit in, buster browns. To call this a placebo is simply ignorant and pathetic. :middlefinger:

All the best to those still on the journey. I'll post again if anything changes. :)

Hey Tilt!
Lookin' good, sir! Keep enjoying that placebo.
(how come when the elderly have their normal pressure hydrocephalus shunted and have an immediate return of balance, normalized gate and cognition, there isn't some neuro there telling them it's placebo???)
Keep moving, keep laughing, keep living.
thank you for sharing,
cheer

It's an honor to have seen your journey from when you turned up here asking questions about the different doctors and then going into the procedure and getting the results you've gotten. Raking leaves, indeed! Running a couple days after the procedure!

Tilt!

Thank you so much for coming back and updating us. Please, please continue to do this. The adjustment must be so bizzairre. I am so happy for you that you are doing so well. Being that I have ME/CFS I'm really interested in your comment that doing the leaf racking would have put you in bed for 2 days. That is me - entirely and utterly. I've just flymoed my tiny yard and I know the consequence.
I can't believe that neurologists would hang about and hassle you - what is it with these people???. Why instead don't they put their heads together to work out what on earth has changed and why it has helped. Thats what science is about surely.

My love to you and yours Tilt - where would we all be without the internet and kind people like yourself and Sal?

cheer and marie have built up an incredible amount of knowledge surrounding ccsvi and similar/related issues... if we could somehow channel that knowledge into bite-sized 'factoids' like this one and mount a sort of 'sleazy-political-in-your-face'-type ad campaign to simultaneously call neurologists on their BS and educate the masses... I think it'd be great

Love the new video but anyone seeing this for the first time should go back and watch your first ones, the music tugs on your heart strings and your mum's laughter is priceless.

Your experience sealed the deal for us and we went to NY in July and my husband went back in October. He hasn't 'won the medical lottery' as you so nicely put it but we definitely think it was worth it. Thanks again for sharing - if only a few people experience the results you have everyone's efforts to get the word out will have been worth it.

Long may your results hold. Keep posting updates - you are an inspiration.
