My right jug is twice as wide as my left. Normal? Common?

Unfortunately that's the only finding from the "non-CCSVI-trained" venous ultrasound today.

Will see what the venography on Wednesday will show. Though I was prepared to "look stupid" in the eyes of the local doctor, so here I am :oops:

Or is your left jug half the size of the right? :) I'm only half kidding.. what did the doctor say about the results?

Good luck on the MRV - I have my ultrasound tomorrow at the local. Keeping fingers crossed for abnormal results.

Common to have a disparity in size. My right was very noticeably larger than the left. Good luck on your MRV, and remember, few if any (at least that I am aware of) Stanford patients had a + ultrasound.... Me included, so take heart! :)

Thank you for the words of encouragement Mark! Next time I am in Los Angeles, can I take you out for lunch? With your wife and kids and my husband? I've never met a "liberated" person before :)

I hope you people know that you are our heroes...
