When i read things like this it makes me wonder is it MS, please see link, maybe people that have been told they have MS, have Carotid-artery-blockage, symptons look the same to me.

Or this has caused the MS and its all to do with the blockage. CCSVI

Hi zaksin,
just do not forget carotid artery and a vein are two different things.

A stroke lesion is quite different from a MS lesion. Both things are not related at all even if they have similar effects on health.

On the other hand, is quite surprising that some people have had both. Take a look at this thread:
