I think using drugs developed from the wrong model of MS can be dangerous. These types of therapies are akin to treating repeated hammer strikes on one's thumb by suppressing the body's swelling and bruising response. If the CCSVI model proves out, the FDA (and similar bodies) should review some of the MS drug registrations.

There were yet two other drugs anounced today: fampridine-SR and AMPYRA

Maybe this is a good sign. Perhaps Pharma is attempting to get all their drugs out in public view before clinical results prove CCSVI is legitmate and takes the forefront of treatment. If you had spent 10m on research only to realize it was soon going down the crapper because a surgery (of all things!)
was fixing the same thing and soon to overshadow your latest concoction you would want get there first no?

Greetings,
A lot of good news are being spread and bad news as well. It should be clear that we have to be patients before really build a lot of hope on something.

Yes big Pharma might feel the threat but not all doctors are really working for big pharmas. The major problem with CCSVI is that it is new, not proven, and coming from Europe (not from USA).

Doctors are not willing to take chances and play with the MS societies especially in US and Canada as those are huge organizations and can lobby well against the doctors sometimes.

Let us just want for few extra months and I hope it will be to the best of everybody.
