Recent Study with Open MRI suggests spinal stenosis blocking CSF could cause MS. Recently I had MRI of spine and found stenosis in my lumber area due to disc dislocation/ bulging causing thecal sac compression. Any comments :roll: .

Hi Taurus, you should stop in on this thread in the CCSVI Forum (CCSVI and CCVBP) to talk about your spinal stenosis and ask some questions to "upright doc."

Yeah, I didn't know that's what the thread was about either, but my C-spine MRIs showed lots of spinal problems 8 years ago, and now I've found a place to ask questions about them. :smile:

I think it's the MS that causes the stenosis not the reverse... actually I see the stenosis as a defensive reflex from the veins closing up to protect our blood from the pathogens (the dark spots that we develop later on the brain when white lesions become "black holes"... those black bugs are similar to those found in leukemia or other types of cancer . That would explain why CCSVI procedure does not cure MS... it simply does not kill the root cause.

Hi euphoniaa

I have noted your advice and posted the same on the CCSVI and CCVBP forum. Thanks for the advice.
