MrSuccess,
Please don't misunderstand me, I also think this is a tremendous breakthrough. One I have been wanting too.
It's just that during the last few months I've learned so much about the illness we call MS, and how the wonderful, bright and inquisitive minds here at TIMS work together. And also I've read and felt the attitudes that came initially from the MS Societies, and still are. See the post of reneelucia titled, MS Society Dinner. So that part of why I am apprehensive.
I've also gotten quite an education on how the pharmaceutical industry conducts business and while of course worthwhile medications are a by product of that industry, so is GREED, it's insidious and it spreads like a virus. Some of the industries practices are deplorable. And their influence on research trials and the trial outcomes is another reason for my apprehension.
And lastly I'm apprehensive because I've been here at TIMS one less month than you and I wonder how did this all come to where folks with MS are unable to even get tested for CCSVI. How did we lose our doctor patient rights so quickly?
Research money is not easily come by so I want us all to keep an eye on the money!
So I hope too, Mr Success, that this will be the beginning of the turn around in attitudes towards CCSVI research if the government grants $10 million to CCSVI research.
