H, I'm new on here but was wondering if it is possible to go to Europe and be investigated and treated for the ccsvi? If so where do you go and who to see. Is it Poland?

Thankyou 8O

Hi Jasmine,

Yes, you can do that. There are a few topics on here with all the info you need but there is lots of reading needed :D Dr Simka in Poland is your European option.

Good luck!

Thankyou. I have read quite alot about it and am aware of all the risks. Interestingly, my dad had stent put in his veins years ago 9different weins though as this was for angina) but it does make me think if I have soe hereditory vein insufficiency thing going in. I so want to have the tests for this at least asap. Do you know where Dr Simka is based? :x

Good luck!
