Hi DebChazin:
Here are the doctors in Poland who are treating CCSVI:

mariansimka@poczta.onet.pl (massive waiting list!)
kosteckj@op.pl


Also there is, apparently, one in Bulgaria:

grozdinski@mail.bg (accepting patients from April)

HI Deb, First Edser is a man, not Esther...
I can send you information about how to get in touch with Dr Simka in a private message here. So look out for that.
It is too soon to be thinking about booking flights at the moment as Dr Simka in Poland is fully booked until 2011.
Also the problems of CCSVI are in the veins not the artery.
It might be worth for you to join our fanpage in the UK as things are in progress at the moment and there may well be testing facilities by the end of March: www.ms-ccsvi-uk.org
Until that time the patients travelling to Poland are having their tests done there.
In the meantime I suggest you get yourself acquainted with what this is all about by reading the 'stickys' at the top of this forum.

I am new on this site, and am trying to find out as much information as I possibly can to help my brother. He was recently diagnosed with MS (about 10months ago). Your posts give so much hope! Keep them coming, I am glued to them to see how your progress is coming along!

Welcome Muriel,
There is so much information available here that it may take you a while to digest it all, but it is well worth the effort.

Thanks Edser and Dovechick. Happy to be on the forum, I cannot get over the sheer wealth of information.

Edser that is fantastic news about the physco's reaction. This sounds like it really works - it's very exciting!

Edser you'll be on the Late Late (Ireland's answer to Oprah) yet talking about it!

Hi everyone

I think I've made some progress which I wanted to let you know about. We had a meeting last night with my brothers GP and a couple of other people that were interested in CCSVI and the corrective procedure.

First of all, which I think is HUGE, is that the GP is 100% on board with this. We showed him lots of research and articles and forums and web demos, Dr Zamboni's paper (you know what I'm talking about!) and he says YES let's look into this - there must be something in this!!

First port of call is getting a good radiographer on board to do the doppler ultrasound which is now in hand. So I'm thinking babysteps, but very very productive steps!

Edser I would love to speak to you about who you spoke to in Eire - did you get a vascular consultant on board here? I'm thinking that is our next step, but power in numbers!

Everyone have a great day!!!

Well done Muriel, make sure you take Dr Simka's paper on how to perform a doppler, also it is important that they have the right kind of equipment to carry out the test. But one step at a time is best.
